Thanks for everything Jeff,

I have taken your suggestions and installed, and or changed things. I am having difficulty in deciding yas or no with respect to ougoing traffic. Most are easy to understand, but some just have alpha numeric designations that I have no clue as to what or why I need to allow as outbound. Some I can post on the internet to see if others consider them to be a problem. But that is only as good as the site. Last question for you than is this; How do I know what is valid?
 
Hi wmbeyer,

If there is some outbound traffic that you can not decide whether or not it is ok you should definitely block it until you find out for sure. From a malware standpoint I am not seeing anything on your logs that is showing malware though.
 
Hi. :)

Your helper is currently unavailable so I will be assisting you if that is acceptable.

Are you experiencing any further issues with the machine and did you install a third party software firewall or not?
 
installing 3rd party software

I am using Zone alarm. My machine is running better now than it has in a long time. Also, I no longer get a message from the university telling me that I have a Bot. Thanks for everything.
 
OK and on behalf of jeffce/Safer Networking, you're welcome!
