Re: Finding which programme started an outgoing connection

This is easy to do.  First, open task manager on your pc, click View, select columns, and check the column next to PID, 
then click ok.  In the bottom of the task manager window, make sure 'show processes from all users' is checked.
Open a command prompt and type netstat -aon.  This command gives you a list of all network connections to and from your 
pc at the current time.  Find the IP Address/connection you are tracking down in this output, then look in the PID 
column.  Take that number back to the task manager window and sort this by the PID column at the top, and you'll see 
the process which initiated this connection.
