Exclamation Disturbing

Hi all, Ive recently installed XoloX version 112 with the 115 update. I have been using a program called COMMVIEW to see what resources have been used where and when, when running client software. My findings are very disturbing. If you would like to see what I mean, then please take a look at the ip status read out 5 minutes after switching Xolox on, and 5 minutes after switching Xolox off. (both pages were made when nothing was being downloaded by Xolox)
You can find them here:
http://www.mjholdings.com/xolox.HTM (5 mins after on)
http://www.mjholdings.com/xolox turned off.HTM (5 mins after off)

We also performed these tests on Kazaa, and again, you can follow the link below to see the stats we got.

So what have I learned, well firstly, no client software should have access to Port 137, which is used by netbios. And when I dont have any files in my shared folder, why are these people trying to connect to my computer through Xolox??
1ST IP ADDY = WARSZAWA
2ND IP ADDY = NORTH DAKOTA STATE UNIVERSITY
3RD IP ADDY = WARSZAWA
4TH IP ADDY = USA / MEXICO BORDER
5TH IP ADDY = SOMEWHERE NEAR DES MOINES USA
6TH IP ADDY = SOMEWHERE NEAR AYLESBERY VALE ENGLAND
7TH IP ADDY = SANTO DOMINGO
8TH IP ADDY = BALTIMORE USA
The above details are from the Xolox 5 minutes after off page., but still people are trying to connect to our PC. The IP address's have been traced back to the people that are connecting to me here, and sending me data packets, also this is where they reside. Bouncy bouncy, hmmmmm. Thanks Xolox, but no thanks.
