The components that I think you are refering to are either the .001uF RFI/EMI
filter caps or the filter inductor ferite beads/or/resistors. These components
form either a R/C or L/C I/O filter to help our favorite computer pass
FCC class B, (Home use), not to mention VDE class B and all of the other
EMI watch dog agencies.
