Did you check the firewall / IDS logs? A week ago I was getting almost
constant HD activity which was keeping me up at night (literally, my
Smoothwall box is in my bedroom). After looking at the firewall logs it
turned out that somehow people were mistaking my red IP for a
peer-to-peer node. Smoothwall was just logging each request.
