A little later, I was connected via LAN to somewhere... iConnection.
Querytool showed that as expected. Then I noticed that my WiFi had also
connected to someone.

QueryTool didn't report the WiFi connection very well. I selected the
WiFi, and it still reported my LAN IP address and DHCP servers. It showed
nothing about the WiFi, even though ipconfig liked it. I disabled the LAN,
and QueryTool still showed my LAN IP, although it then did pick up the
other DHCP servers.

virtualearth.msn.com was able to pinpoint my location via the WiFi, whereas
the LAN shows up someplace else.
