This tool is a replacement of
the standard Windows netstat command-line utility. It displays all
the inbound and outbound connections to your computer and lists all
open ports. Additionally, NetStat maps open ports and established
connections to the owning application.
Right-clicking on the window
brings up a menu with the following commands:
|

refreshing of the list. The refresh interval is configurable (see
