Do you have a VPN client, software firewall or other tool installed, that interacts with the TCP/IP stack? I have encountered a few VPN clients in the past introduced odd behavior, like redirecting DNS queries to some unexpected server.
Another explanation would be a service that tries to collect information for some asset management or HW inventory.
Good luck Eddi
PS: In general, Windows systems won't reply to the broadcast message and some Unix systems will. I would be surprised if a router forwards the broadcast message.
