Looks like I should have supplied one more piece of information... This is

A clip from MS Supprot

If a computer is in a state where it has no valid IP address lease (for
example, when starting or when the lease has expired), the computer's
TCP/IP
stack is initialized with the address 0.0.0.0.

If, in this state, an ARP request with sender's IP address 0.0.0.0 is
received, the above events will be logged.

For additional information on the ICMP hotfix, please see the following
article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
