    IP address in question

    I cant figure this out. Everytime i boot up my pc i pull up the cmd prompt and do the netstat -an 2 command and i begin to watch it plug along. Then suddenly my computer connects with this ip address TCP XXX:1032 207.33.111.82:8195 so i went in my sygate and blocked this ip address, but it still manages to connect. so what i did next was clear all my applications that have internet access to make sure it wasnt a live update program or what not and i looked at all of the ip's of my applications and that ip address was not one of them that i allow to connect. Theres only one other thing i noticed though the ip's at sygate scan are very similiar they are 207.33.111.36 and 207.33.111.37 could the address im worried about possibly be sygate? your help would be greatly appreciated -dublix

    What OS do you have? XP will establish many services that request or establich outbound connections.

    phishphreek80 is probably right. Your ISP might be connecting with you, for whatever reason. I looked at your post and saw that the remote IP is connected to your comp via port 1032. Check this site out: http://www.seifried.org/security/ports/1000/1032.html

    The site mentions that port 1032 is the first port used to establish outbound connections.

    Thanks for the link Showtime. Im running WindowsXP and Linux but this is happening when im using XP. I dont think its my ISP because i have been using the netstat -an 2 command for around six months, i always immediatly run that command to see what my computer is doing on start up and it has been connecting to this ip for the last three weeks and has never connected to that ip ever before, maybe its going for an outboung connection and im just not quick enough with that command to catch it. but that ip range is totally different than my ISP's.

    You may want to check out active ports. and foundstone's fport.

    These programs will match up what program is using what ports and to what address they connect. You may want to run that. If it is a system service, you can just disable it if you don't need it.

    If you use the -o option, XP should give you the pid of the process that's using that connection. That should help you track down the problem.
    People who always listen to audio are audiophiles, people who always read books are bibliophiles, so i guess that makes me a text philephile.

    Verio IMO is a spamhaus. Not that what your experiencing is spam but Verio seems to offer protection too those involved in offensive behavior of this nature. You may have spyware sending home information about you. Run Ad Aware to get rid of any offending modules that may have been installed.

    GET a proggy called TCPview.
    lets you easily source the app using the network, and kill it.
    Hmm...theres something a little peculiar here. Oh i see what it is! the sentence is talking about itself! do you see that? what do you mean? sentences can\'t talk! No, but they REFER to things, and this one refers directly-unambigeously-unmistakably-to the very sentence which it is!
