Are you suing a p2p application?
No.I dont use any software like that at all.looking at my logs these inbound connections are being blocked on a regular basis and im not even sure why.
If you’re on Windows 7/8 and have IPv6 tunnelling enabled - it is by default - it could be the iphlpsvc. Take a look at:
Suspicious incoming connections
svchost.exe port 57398: What’s going on here?
Although the threads mention p2p, these connections can be seen without these applications present.
The log may tell you a few scenarios. I assume you have no particular reasons on the most of OSI seven layers.
I do not know which resources are precisely included in CIS’s Windows Operating System by design. Without knowing it, it is unreasonable if this appears a program or driver (e.g. an external device that temporarily connect with your PC) attempts to communicate with a program/driver that uses UDP 46246 port via using interoperably a Windows Operating System resource. Because there are some number of different source IP addresses indicated. Focusing to this point, I would take it someone may attempt UDP port scans to find out a program on your system that could use/listen the UDP 46246 to his/her concerns. To verify this symptom, you may want to pay further attentions in some more days. Watching activities on ‘Killswitch’ using with a TCP/IP packet analyzer may be of helps.
I think its the MS-DOS directory service trying to connect.i dont do any form of file sharing so i assume i can keep this blocked.
