Sending TCP packets to many IP addresses after downloading a program

I constantly monitor UDP and TCP packets sent to IP addresses on my Windows 7 computer. After downloading a free online program to convert media video files, I soon noticed my computer constantly and rapidly sending out packets to more
than 10 IP addresses (and quite a few were going to China, Russia and Germany). I tried a search on my hard drive for the file that contained those specific IP addresses and found nothing.
Note: For Viewing Folders, I do not hide operating system files, and I show hidden files, folders and drives.
Then I  tried searching my windows registry (via REGEDIT) for those IP addresses and found nothing.
I assumed these IP addresses may have been hidden and included in a .dll file. I could not find an answer on the internet to determine where these hacking IP addresses originated from, so I deleted the program and rebooted.
The problem still existed, so I had to restore to a previous backup date. The restore fixed the problem.  I am so confused. If I wasn't monitoring my connections I would never have known about this hacking flaw in Windows 7 security. I
still don't know what type of file(s) were causing this problem. Or what causes my computer to send unsolicited packets to so many IP addresses (to domestic, foreign and hostile locations). 

Message to members... DO NOT download the software in this area.
Contains malicious code.
Thank you FangZhou Chen for your response. I am not exactly sure which of these two programs (listed below) was the culprit for this problem, but I do know that both programs have issues with malicious code. Understand I have used both of these programs
in the past, but stopped using them because of these issues. The Freeware #1 was my favorite and was user friendly, until the malicious code was added, and may be the real culprit.
Malicious Freeware #1: Any Video Converter (program name: avc-free.exe)
This program contains PUP.Optional.OpenCandy - While PUP.Optional.OpenCandy is not technically a virus, this PUP can be extremely annoying and quite difficult to get rid of. It comes loaded with adware, which as anyone who has been infected by adware can tell
you, can drive you to the brink of insanity with its relentless adverts, plus it will very likely hijack your browser and install a strange and unwanted toolbar on your machine too. Not only do unwanted toolbars get in the way but they can direct you to websites
that the creators want you to visit and can in general make using your computer a real user-unfriendly experience. PUP.Optional.OpenCandy is also a form of spyware which enables it to be installed deep within your PC’s operating system so that it is harder
for you to find – and therefore delete.

This program is bundled with other software. I don't remember the malicious type or effects.

P.S. - Excellent tools in cleaning up maleware have been to use Malwarebytes, AdwCleaner and  HitmanPro (both recommended by the malwarebytes.org website).

    PROBLEM : I want to know if it�s possible to make that in java because i had search and i have found just the client and server socket but i want a socket to send tcp Packet? Thank you.

    I am unable to download iTunes on my second Windows 8 computer (64 bit). I got it fine on my first one and have used it quite a bit. After downloading the program and installing it on the second computer, I keep getting this error message: "Apple Mobile Device Failed to Start." This happens when when my IPhone 5c is connected via Wi-Fi and I have clicked on "Trust This Computer." (I have tried to install several times-- It gets hung up when it reaches"Starting Services.")

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (Later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    See also HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP or HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
    and paste into:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
    The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.

  • Self-assigned IP address after downloading Mavericks

    Last night I downloaded Mavericks on my MacBook Pro and everything was working fine. This afternoon however now System Preferences says I have a Self-Assigned IP. I haven't changed any preferences or done anything different so I'm really confused. I can't connect to Wi-Fi or to the Ethernet cable in my room. Any ideas on how to fix this issue?

    I am now having this same issue. I have the issue with my ethernet connection.  I am trying to share my internet connection between my MBP and my Xbox 360 and I have this pesky self-assigned ip address.   PLEASE HELP!!

  • I recently signed up with iTunes match. After downloading the program I lost over 2500 songs! What happened to them?

    Can someone please help me? I want all my songs back.

    There is nothing to download for iTunes Match. It is a service that is built into iTunes that you subscribe to, then enable. So... you enabled the service and let the initial scan, match and upload process complete. Is that correct?
    How are you determining that songs are missing? And where are they missing from? Your iTunes library? Please be specific.
    As to backups, you say you "can't find them." How are you backing up your personal data?
    If it is determined that the song files are actually gone from the computer HDD/SSD and you do not have backups then, yes, you'll need to rip (not "download") the CDs again.

  • Cant open firefow after downloading the program

    I got this message
    isntruction at ox784277a9 cannot be read
    the memory at ox784277a9 cannot be read

    Personally I would boot into recovery & reinstall the OS.
    If it is new I assume you have nothing to lose (not migrated data to it). The default install option will only try to replace files in place anyway. Backup if you do have an valuable data.
    oovoo & Dropbox both download as .dmg files (disk images). It suggests it could be similar to another issue I saw with 10.9 where the installed Disk Utility app appeared to be corrupt. Perhaps your Disk Utility 'diskmounter' helper is damaged.

    Literally just bought a MACBOOK AIR and just tried to download 2 programs, Oovoo and Dropbox. Each time they finish the download and I click on it to install them I get the message : THE APPLICATION CAN NOT BE FOUND.
    This is extremely frustrating, considering its a brand new computer out of the box ...

  • My MBP has started to send out TCP packets larger than the MTU on the NIC - is there any place that this can be overriden?

    Got a very weird issue here and wondering if anyone has any other ideas. Basically over the wired NIC only, my Mac has started to send out large HTTP/HTTPS packets from the browser (> 1500 bytes) Captures show packet sizes from 2000 all the way to 4000 sometimes. This happens in Firefox and Chrome so doesn't appear to be application related.
    This causes fragmentation issues and traffic drops which basically causes most of my websites and  tools to crash and burn (and I get all sorts of SSL errors from applications, etc).
    It appears to be limited to just TCP packets as pings with the DF bit set will not send any larger than 1500 bytes.
    However if I switch to wireless, everything works fine and captures show the correct maximum packet size of 1500 for all packets leaving my client.
    The MTU on the  en0 interface is 1500 as per ifconfig and I made sure that it was set to 1500 in Network config panel (because there is an option for jumbo frames there which bumps up the MTU).
    A packet capture also shows that during the three way handshake the TCP MSS is successfully sent and negotiated as 1480, but then it appears to ignore that when sending packets later in the TCP stream.
    I've rebooted, upgraded to 10.7.4, checked the "sysctl" outputs and matched against a Mac not having the issue.
    This is the newest MBP 15 inch model.
    Any other ideas on things to check?

    Have you used any sort of "tuner" software? You are obviously an advanced user. Sometimes we hack things up and forget about it later. If you are sure you didn't do that, maybe poke around with IPv6 settings. Supposedly people are trying to enable that and it is going to be a disaster.
