    WMP and Unknown IP's

    Hi,
    I have Windows Vista Home Premium x64 Service Pack 1.
    As Anti-Virus I have AVG Free Edition 7.5 and Windows Defender. Windows
    Firewall is On.

    When I open Windows Media Player to play some audio files (mp3) and I look
    in "Resource Monitor" I see in Network window alot of IPs...
    Image: Windows Media Player (wmplayer.exe) / PID: 2293 / Address:
    87.248.217.99
    But more then one line... and then the "Image" is "System" (not
    wmplayer.exe) and in "address" are the same IP's...



    Please little help here. I need to know what is this strange behaviour...
    Viruses? Hacks? :|

    Windows Defender is NOT antivirus software. It targets spyware and adware.

    I think you'll understand, i know.
    I said "more then one line"... I mean, more then one IP... Up to 10-15 ips...
    Ok, I don't know what is that... When I acces WMP and the library list is
    not loaded the network is empty, only when the library list is loaded happen
    this.
    Ok, thank you anyway...
