I am having problems with non-responsive internet for a bunch of times a day.
At first I blamed Win7 for this behavior, but I am not sure anymore.
I found out that, while the internet is unresponsive (and it won't ever revive itself automatically), my computer is making connections to a lot of different IP's.
This is just a small amount I'm pasting here. (Oh an SYSTEM is my computername, not the process ^.^)

I'm aware that torrent clients also cause this behavior, but I wouldn't be here if the torrent client caused this.
I'm not running any extra programs like hamachi*, torrent-clients, messenger, windows update or the automagically activated "customerexperienceimprovementcareserviceinvestigation-bandwidthdestroyer-applicationmanagementmodule".
This has happened to me before and I've taken precautions since that time.
Thanks to Sandboxie (another virtual pc box) for running all my downloaded programs/installers, I've been clean from infections... I thought...
Since three weeks this problem persists again, but now it's a bit different.
It used to only do this when explorer.exe was started (meaning I was 100% sure I was infected).
Now it does this every 15-20 minutes unless I am pinging somebody from my hamachi list or local network.
Is there any program I could use to see which programs are causing this?
Microsoft Network Monitor tells me the program is <Unknown>. Meaning it's not very helpful

*Note, I was running hamachi, but not logged on while these IP's showed up. The network monitor spotted a (1) broadcast signal going to the hamachi range of IP's (5.x.x.x).
It's rather useless and doesn't mean the list of IP's was produced by hamachi. So I ran another test with hamachi-services disabled and concluded the random IP's still show up.
Thnx in advance, I know there are more people who also need help, so I'll be patient.
I uploaded the Microsoft Network Module, it's right under the 1 MB, marvelous

Cheers.
