The Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) is very crucial for TCP/IP network communication. If you begin to notice network connectivity problems such as particular web pages not loading or not being able to ping certain IP addresses then clearing your ARP cache is a good place to start.The TCP/IP ARP Command component provides the functionality to add, delete, or display the IP address for Media Access Control (MAC) address translation.
To flush/Delete the ARP cache in windows 7/Vista/XP/2000/Server 2003/2008 follow this procedure
Click on Start—>Run—> type the following command click ok
netsh interface ip delete arpcache
Dynamic ARP cache entries update persist for 2-20 minutes depending on the system.
Windows 2003 Server = 10 minutes
Windows 2000 professional/Server = 10 minutes
Windows XP = 2 minutes
Solaris = 5 minutes

Windows Server 2008 x64 denies to add static entry for the primary Gateway. Even after removing the dynamic entry, there is no success in arp -s gw_IP gw_MAC interface_IP.
With Server 2003 I didn’t have any problems though.
I got connected my vista business pc with ninernet & it was updated some thing. then the system drive filled by something and displays as low memory on that drive. it is continuously filling and increasing the used capasity as unbelivable.
