In System Monitor I can see a process called ipw3945 which I assume is

* It's averaging running about 50% of one cpu - when I'm not using it
* I can't see it in System > Administration > Network to disable it
Ah well, no-one got back to me on that one. Never mind.

I think the problem is a buggy driver, maybe it was trying to configure
itself in some kind of loop. Anyone once it gets kicked into life it
stops doing that. Just how I managed to kick it into life I don't know.
