System trying to connect to static IP that no longer exists
Background:
I had my Win7 desktop configured to connect to my laptop via crossover cable using a static IP. Everything with this setup worked fine.
Now I no longer use this setup(the laptop is no longer around), yet my desktop is still trying to access the static IP 10.1.1.2. It seems that netbios is trying to make the connection because when I disable netbios it stops trying to connect. I can't find where in netbios it is using this IP. All of the networked drives ot this static IP have long since been deleted. I've scoured the registry and did a nbtstat -rr command to flush the netbios cache with no luck.
Any ideas?
