    hello, i found out using netstat that my cpu has too many established tcp connections, dozens of them and all of them are from weird sites names.

    You're welecome.
    If you are sure that they are really shutdown then continue on to the READ & RUN ME FIRST.


    Two more questions too:
    1. Do you have a router installed in between your PC and cable/dsl modem and if so does the router also have a hardware firwall?
    2. Do you have a real software firewall installed or are you relying on the Windows firewall which is inadequate?

    Does the modem include a firewall? If not, this could be part of your problem.

    Not good but better than nothing at all.

    Once you finish the cleaning procedure and attach the requested logs, we will have better idea of what is going on.
