Numerous TNSPING.EXE processes in the background.

Hi,

Recently I've met a weird problem in one of my dev machines:

Numerous TNSPING.EXE processes are seen in Window Task Manager, each of which has a memory usage of around 10M or 14M, consuming up more than 1G memory in total. Besides, two oracle.exe instances is consuming all the CPU, and I cannot connect to any of the databases hosted on the machine (No response for long time, no time out) There are also a few perl.exe, cmd.exe running too, don't know whether they are related to the problem. After restarting the machine, it come back to normal, but after one or two days the machine is up, these processes show up again...

This is a screenshot of the process manager:

The machine is installed Oracle 10g, hosting 4 databases. Does someone has any clue of what's going on?

Thanks
