I even have SETI project suspended and it still shows activity to that address. If I exit out of BOINC it goes away. Resource Monitor Network Image Address boincmgr.exe www.8minutedating.com boinc.exe www.8minutedating.com Any ideas? ID: 1225929 ·

I guess it is not only showing BOINC connecting to that address but also IE, FireFox. Even sometimes is lists some image of mcafee connected to that address. ID: 1241400 ·

These do detect and remove all those pesky bits of spyware that your AV and other AM scanners let stay on your system. ID: 1241429 ·
