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...
