My wife's computer, running XP Home, seems to be sending pulses of between 
five and fifteen KB of data out to the internet every second.  (You see a 
sawtooth curve on the Task Manager.)

I suspect some malware, but none of my malware detection programs have found 
anything.

Is there some utility that I can use to find the destination of these 
packets of data and/or what is sending them?
