I think (and suggested to the IAOC) that there should be
an information sheet and / or web site for each meeting with
information on how to determine Ad Hoc Mode, how
to turn it off, etc., for all major OS choices.

Tangential:
At the IEEE meeting following the IETF, someone asked me "how do I
turn off ad hoc mode".
I was hard put to find an answer for Windows XP with the standard
drivers (I use 2000 and a Cisco driver kit).
Suggestion: Make instructions *with screenshots* of how to turn off
ad hoc mode on Windows XP available at the next IETF.

http://www.nmrc.org/pub/present/shmoocon-2006-sn.ppt describes what
seems to explain the appearance of IETF6x named computer-to-computer

has systems automatically advertise the last AP SSID after
(involuntary)
disconnection. The slides are skimpy on details, but provide a
bit more
background than the usual "turn of ad-hoc mode" exhortations at IETF
meetings.
