Anyone know what this might be? its in sweden as far as I know, is it possible that this could be some sort of remote entry to my computer?
 
Do you have hola plugin installed?

If you have, could be somebody from sweden using hola to watch bbc iplayer.

Just a guess.

You could install a 3rd party firewall like comodo to check what program is connecting to that ip.
 
I installed comodo and now its gone, could it be somone hacking me?

I don't have hola installed, its not in my program list atleast

I found that its actually a swedish ISP called breadband2

I have emailed them and asked them about this connection to my computer

Run a CMD.EXE process as administrator and run NETSTAT -b to find out what process on your PC has that address and port open. That should hopefully reveal more.

Sorry mate, it was unavoidable. :cool:

A description of your network and network security would help.

Personally, if you think your network/pc may have been tampered with, I would change the password on your router, change your wifi password to something strong and reformat windows.

Make sure you have your firewall turned on on the router if it has one and that you have a firewall running on windows as well as antivirus of course.
