I have a IBM Lenovo Windows 8.1 PRO that is simply acting as though it has a virus, rootkit, etc.
I looked at my sonicwall and I have over 2000+ connections to this laptop.

I have the latest Kaspersky Total Security, RegRun7.x, as well as Malware Antibytes and none of these softwares show any infections.

however, when I open a command prompt and do NETSTAT I see connections that are not right and as I watch my logs on the sonicwal TZ210 I also I see incoming ports scans, telnet, and many other dropped connections as all incoming WAN to anything is discarded.

I notice that when I has to open the task manager I see several bash, console and this that should ne be running and also there are so many connections when I look at NETSTAT.

What the heck is going on?
