weird network problem after attaching my samsung blackjack phone

Sounds like it's trying to establish a network using Bluetooth or the
Smartphone. Have you tried removing the offending device from Device
Manager and rebooting?

I have deleted it and rebooted and it still shows "Identifying", I think that
might be the name it is trying to connect via, but I can't figure out how to
change it. When I am logged in to the domain (the pw is cached) I don't have
the option to change it. I can "customize" it when I am logged into safemode
with networking, but don't need to because I have full network functionality.
Is there a registry key I can alter or delete? This is frustrating because
I have an MCSE and am completely lost with Vista.
