disconnect machine, get wireshark, read packets, use autoruns, find exe making packets, profit
 Quoting: NotReallyHuman_ 1228980


i am in the industry already...i'm fine. i just want to know before i start having to take things apart myself...i am positive it's adobe through voice chat...no doubt about it
 Quoting: 82ndAirborneSniper


Why would it be adobe, when Java runs in VC?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1331489




Why would it not be adobe?


Flash actionscript 3.0 allows sockets level connection just like Java applets.

Any plugin registered with native code is allowed to do that, short of allowing the scripts to scan your folder.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1346427


Could be flash, not enough info to say...just outbound traffic to an addy....

I'm confused OP, your saying an outside IP, is making calls FROM YOUR COMPUTER via your ip, to GLP?

Sorry, computer process SPELL nazi mode off.


I think you mean your computer is making calls TO an outside IP because of browsing on GLP (allegedly)?

Have you ran "netstat" or "netstat /a" to look for recently active IP connections from processes?

netstat doesn't show what exe/app is doing the connection.

Try using wireshark.

learn about zombie cookies, FYI -GLP uses two of them.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1245248


i clean my cookies automatically every hour, and every open/close of browser...it aint cookies making calls...and besides, cookies are read...they are not executables...
 Quoting: 82ndAirborneSniper


Cookies can be poisoned to cause many problems for your system. Application parameters that are stored in cookies, when poisoned, can cause certain attacks to be executed (CSS, SQL injection, overflows, etc...)

But that's just my two-sense ;)

So are you helping the OP or ragging on me for not knowing the latest "better then Microsoft" tool.

The function of netstat IS TO SHOW what processes have an active TCP/IP connection to the net. I am correct. I take it that wireshark is the newer better alternative?

This is from someone who routinely uses linux tools to "fix" windows PC's.

But what would I know, I try to live life outside of a basement.

Good luck OP, the function of the thread was to try to offer advice I think?

Netstat doesn't do shit other than showing you have active connection to what server.

You have tons of active connection to other servers if you're currently browsing, have your email reader loaded, your messenger, facebook loaded..

It's meaningless.

Wireshark is more accurate, can nail which binary/exe is doing what connection, and you can actually see the binary data in the packets that are being sent and received.

It's a full fledged packet sniffer.

You mean programming remotes for tv's?

Cookies don't execute on their own.

I would say a probing. Run wireshark with outbound only filters for that explicit IP.

Dude, I do use Linux just like everyone else, But my job site doesn't! SO I HAVE to know how to do windows maintenance and keep the system stable enough so the boss is happy.

Worse then that, I have to hack various versions of software to WORK under various versions of OS's. XP ONLY software UNDER VISTA, 98 ONLY SOFTWARE UNDER XP, etc.

F***k off man, I need to keep my job.

Walk in my shoes then leave comments.
