My apologies to the list. That's Process Explorer, not Process Monitor.

To identify the Windows process that is sending out TCP/IP traffic... on the
source system, you can install just about any free or not-free client-based
/ personal firewall software.  

You can also install Microsoft's free Port Reporter, though it doesn't say
whether it is compatible with Windows Vista yet:

e62b4bcd2e

If the results come back that "System" or SVCHOST.EXE is generating the
traffic, then you'll have to use a trick to try to find out which
subordinate process is actually generating the traffic.

kind regards,
