we've had this happen from one site .. where they were running HP's
JetDirect utility to monitor their network printers. apparently (they
determined) the latest version had a bug in it where it was polling
the entire class-A that they were in (for example, we're in 128.x.x.x
and they are also..) for some reason.
they backed off to a previous release and this seemed to fix it.
