I got a message that generic host process was connecting to the Internet.
When I did Netstat, I saw four established connections from my computer to
another port on my computer. What is going on? I just reformatted my
computer, deleting the partition and creating a new partition. I reinstalled
Windows XP Home Edition from the disks Dell sent with the computer.
Everything was installed from manufacturer's disks, and I install the bare
minimum.
Try running netstat -b (or use a tool like tcpview, available from
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/Networking/TcpView.mspx )
to find out what process is listening on that port.
By the way, this is a .NET developers newsgroup, not a general purpose
Windows one. I'm aware that some of the MS forum pages don't make that
clear, but it's worth trying to find a general Windows forum for
similar questions.
