Prodigi, I will check today when after school to see what the IP range is. Thank you for the command, I will defiantly make use of it and then report back my analysis. Murda Mcloud, I am assuming that WAP is enabled because the network is "security enabled" but if seem blind by saying that, I am open minded. I also assume that it is not patched because the owner does not regulate the secuirty of their computer. I will check for updates/progs and av progs. I am not sure but as I said I have suspicion of it merely being siblings (in which case I would be releived because the webcam would not have been cracked) and if that is the case we will pursue physical access to their computers :-). "having said that, dont you think your pushing this a lil far? " -Robbie_b Considering the facts that I have not taken any action, witnessed the Sysinternals' Process Explorer close before I could gather much info, and the webcam on the laptop (It's always open) I don't really think that I am taking anything to far. I would just like to know if my friend, who is a girl, is at risk of a peeping tom, you know? If there is a coperate and it happens to be one of the siblings then privacy is null, lol. I do now consider false positives...but there have never been this many scvhosts running on any vista that I have seen thus far. I could be wrong saying vista machines don't run 9 scvhosts when idleing. Salvador, Were you refering to the link in your signature? If not I do not see any links.
