I'm running Bitdefender firewall and it scans every day and hasn't picked up anything
I will run the usual programs and see what I find

In the meantime, if you want to try out Wireshark, you'll be able to see in more detail what the traffic is and where it's going.
Only able to visit the forums sporadically, sorry.
