iexplore process is connected to unknown site
« on: April 07, 2008, 10:36:37 PM »
I have got active a few iexplore processes in manager but I have got no internet explorer window open. I checked that those processes are connected to this site: whiteboy.whyi.org/slimstat/Log13.php. No antivirus or antispyware program recognizes this problem. What am I to do? I've found no informations about it.

What is your firewall ?
Does it have a log that records what process is trying to make the connection.

What detected the connections ?
What version of IE are you using ?

I don't know, what about HOSTS file cloaking ?
I don't use the HOSTS file.
