    theres a malware/virus identfying type program out there that compiles a list of your processes so users can see to indentify an possible viruses or memory leaks

    Here is a little batch program I wrote that I run now and again to see what is talking to whom. Save it as a .bat or a .cmd filetype, naming it whatever filename you like and run it. You may need to tweak your command prompt window size to allow for scrolling or risk having the output roll off the screen.



    @echo off

    tasklist /svc

    echo.

    netstat -a -o -f | find /V "%COMPUTERNAME%:" | find /V "*:*" | find /V "Active Connections"

    echo.
    echo *** End of List ***
    echo.
