I have recently been analysing my network traffic. And my PC is sending and recieving packets from baym-td1.msgr.hotmail.com, baym-td1.msgr.hotmail.com. The IP addresses are 64.4.25.80, 64.4.25.81, 64.4.25.84, 64.4.25.85 . It is on ports 3544 and 2193. I have checked my computer for viruses and adaware but I still cannot find the cause of this problem.

Something to do with MSN Messenger I think. Or maybe connected with the new techpreview of the MSN search engine and it's picking up web files on your server (doubt it though).

No. This isn't my server and I haven't run MSN in ages.

I doubt theres a virus that connects to a MS site that is undetected by virus scanners . . . What OS is it? XP Pro etc. have Windows Messenger preinstalled and it runs at startup. Also are these connections incoming or outgoing?
