I picked up an interesting tip from Tom Mighell the other day. He explains that you can create a log file to see what programs on your computer made an internet connection. You do this by:

— Bring up your Windows Run box.
— Type “cmd” in the box.
— When the command prompt comes up, type “netstat -b 5 > activity.txt” and press Enter.
— After a few minutes, press Ctrl+C, and the type in “activity.txt”

This is an interesting exercise, just to see what programs on your computer are contacting the mothership.
