internet activity
Here's something that has always bothered me a little. Lets say I turn my computer on but dont open any applications. (in fact, I use msconfig to stop as many apps/services as I can)
I dont have any browser open, and I have auto update (to all apps and windows) shut off or disabled. I can still see packets being sent and received on my computer, sometimes more then others. what information is being sent/received on my computer? Is there any way to find out? |

Do you have an Instant Messenger type apps running? Have you scanned for viruses and trojans?
This great little free app will show the ports in use.. CurrPorts allows you to view a list of ports that are currently in use, and the application that is using it. You can close a selected connection and also terminate the process using it, and export all or selected items to a HTML or text report. Additional information includes the local port name, local/remote IP address, highlighted status changes and more. http://www.snapfiles.com/get/cports.html Look in the column for "established connections.
