how do i cut those "unwanted" or "suspecious" connections?

Use a reputable configurable firewall to control internet access.

hi there

I use ZA free edition and theres no such a tool in ZA shows all the connections connecting to the computer. Any other ways to find it?

Another question i want to ask it....wut does "TIME WAIT" and "CLOSE_WAIT" mean under "state" section in netstat?

[darth_ash]

Time_wait is the state in which a connection waits for timeout incase of Active connection close.
Close_wait is the state in which a connection waits for timeout incase of Passive connection close.

You can view the full TCP state diagram at the following link:

okok...so are those safe?? i mean when it shows "TIME WAIT", "CLOSE WAIT", "LISTENING"

[darth_ash]

It all depends on the IP address with which you have a connection.
If you have a good firewall, you do not need borther about your connections.
