Hi.
Could someone please explain why i would be getting traffic coming from 127.0.0.1 port 80 to a random TCP port.I shows up in my router log every so often.It even happens when PC is off.
Any help or explanations of what could be causing this traffic would be much appreciated.Thanx
Thank You,but i know what 127.0.0.1 is.
The thing that is bugging me is the fact that nothing on my PC is sending requests to 127.0.0.1 so what are the connections from on my router log???
Sounds like you have some kind of installed program running on that port. Might be one you have installed or it could be a virus, spyware or malware of some kind. Try running a virus scan as well as spyware scans ect and see if it helps.
