Ok, thanks again everyone who is trying to share experience. But I just want to remind my original question, which is following: How I can find real processes behind activity when "netstat -abvo" shows that it is "System 4" process?
As I have said before: "System" is basically a representation of the kernel, so there is no real process behind it.
I am sure that every Windows PC would have any connection listed as owned by "System 4" in "netstat -abvo". So probably you may try to find what is behind to test offered approach or propose methodology. I still can't find right solution, while I tested all suggested approaches....
You may want to give some more details on the results of your approaches, e.g. what does the suspicious traffic look like? cu 59cobalt -- "All vulnerabilities deserve a public fear period prior to patches becoming available." --Jason Coombs on Bugtraq --------------------------------------------------------------------------- This list is sponsored by: Norwich University EARN A MASTER OF SCIENCE IN INFORMATION ASSURANCE - ONLINE The NSA has designated Norwich University a center of Academic Excellence in Information Security.
