Hello,

there are many possibilities for this reason!

but take a look on the connections on port 445,

usually port 445 is used from Windows 2000/XP/2003

SMB over TCP for Windows fielsharing, but it's also possible, that you have a worm on your PC!!!

more information on the web:

and if you google, I am sure you find many information about port 445 on the internet.
