RE: Finding which programme started an outgoing connection

For boot process, I suggest the command line

Wmic startup list full

It will show you programs and services during startup, the process that is creating the UDP frames will likely show up 
there.

Have you thought of running netstat? This may be a longshot, but you
could create a script that starts on startup that checks netstat, or you
can start it right as you boot up yourself to see what opens that program.

Hello List,

This is more of an end user question then anything else:



I use zone alarm on my pc, and it is alerting that some during boot up
is attempting to connect (UDP) to an IP address in the Netherlands
81.171.115.5 (it looks like some colocation service over there).

Now I would like to know how I can track back to find out what service
is making that connection during boot up, but I have no idea how I
would go about doing that?   (Other then setting up a hub with my
desktop and capture in wireshark, which I can do fine, its just the
analysis of the traffic to find out whats causing it, so I would
rather not do that step)

Using Windows 7 OS.

Cheers,

Tom
