win XP packets flying, Help

Hello Paul Fan J. And all. I have noticed my pc running strange lately ,kinda like Im not alone.I ran nod32 , The Cleaner also up to date norton anti virus. When I log on to the internet ,I have notice in 3 hours my computer is sending packets out like today 9,897,598,292 in 4 hours and packets recieved 217,913 and thats after going from website to email the usual. Paul you and fan helped before , I hope you can help now. Thank you David

 

David,

do you have TDS-3 or Port Explorer installed? With the first you could look at the processes which are running in the background and with the second you could spy on the open ports and the packets being sent. Would be very helpful in your case!

Best regards,

Patrice

 

Hi david,

Please go to http://www.tomcoyote.org/hjt/, and download 'Hijack This!'. An explanation on how it works can be found at the same page.
Unzip, doubleclick HijackThis.exe, and hit "Scan".

When the scan is finished, the "Scan" button will change into a "Save Log" button.
Press that, save the log as a .txt file, and copy and paste its contents into your next post.

Most of what it lists will be harmless, so do not fix anything yet.

Regards,

Pieter

Hello All, I have had my pc on tonight with out the cable modem connected to the internet. I hooked back in and it showed the pc on for 3 & half hours, connected or not it continues to send huge in the billions of packets. I have no programs except norton anti Virus enabled, What is going on ? I am stumped. Thank you David 9:38 pm Cya

 

Hi David

Do you have a firewall in place to monitor/control applications wanting access to the network/Internet?

Have you tried something like Port Explorer mentioned above to see what is going on?

Regards,
