Any way to...

..tell what programs are accessing what ips?

The thing is I keep getting outgoing connections to Callinghome.biz from something on my machine, and checking out both with HiJack this and via ad-aware /sbybot S&D, and nothing has come up.

So basically i need to find which app is accessing those sites, and see if its a legitimate request (PeerGuardian could be wrong, but I doubt it)

I've checked I haven't been rootkitted or anything like that, searched for the common variants of OfferOptimizer which sometimes directs you there, and none of that stuff is installed. I don't even know how it got on here tbh

bump? anyone?

If you want a crude look then netstat -ao in the command line shows what connections are going in/out of the system and to where.

Judging by the results I've found in google - you might need to do some of the following http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforums/thread18939.html

Check out that, free and quite handy

Lee - Yea I've gone and searched for every variant of the program, but can't find a trace of it on my system. It just seems to make periodic outgoing connections, which peer guardian blocks

Cheers BeoWulf - ill give that a try

Just used the utility that beoWulf suggested and found the program responsible - HPzipm12

Googling it turned up that its a printer driver/component for my photosmart all-in-one, but why would it be accessing the internet?

[BeoWulf]
