Axegrinder. the netbios ports are closed by virgin media now as standard because of the amount of people who do not set administrator passwords when they buy a pc.

What was the established connection ? Where was it going and what port was it going out on ?

Google for a program called Icesword and have a look at what is going on in your pc and for possible hidden programs that could be hiding (These could be viruses or trojans that are Kernel Hooking) that are trying to access the internet.
