Even better, you can get tcpvcon from www.sysinternals.com and track ports
to the process that is loading it. Once you know your normal baseline
activity then you can detect rogue .exe's and other items that would be
spitting malicious traffic onto your newtwork. Also try out there
autoruns.exe utility which works wonders.

1. At a command prompt, type Netstat âano > netstat.txt, and then
press ENTER. This command creates the Netstat.txt file. This file
lists all the listening ports.
2. At the command prompt, type Tasklist > tasklist.txt, and then press
ENTER. If the program in question runs as a service, type Tasklist
/svc > tasklist.txt instead of Tasklist > tasklist.txt so that the
services that are loaded in each process are listed.
3. Open the Tasklist.txt file, and then locate the program that you
are troubleshooting. Write down the Process Identifier for the
process, and then open the Netstat.txt file. Note any entries that are
associated with that Process Identifier and the protocol that is used.

Or you can try you hand at logging the IPNAT driver.
netsh ras set tracing ipnat enable
OR
netsh ras set tracing * enable

Check up the log after the session at:
%SystemRoot%\tracing

It has detailed description with path and filenames.

hi,



It can't hurt, the ISP may or may not act on your information, but it is
worth a shot. It would greatly help your case if you sent them copies of
your logs containing the pertinent information..


Most of ISPs could not log the informations of connections considered
safety,
maybe you can inform them your IP infos and ask them to record datas
between you
and suspicous site.
