Hey i have a program called SPOOLSVC.exe connecting out of port 445, but it keeps disabling my firewall and i can't close the port with my firewall. Is there a way to close the port in the command prompt?

You are (almost certainly) infected. See

It would be prudent to, after cleaning, research the capabilities of this IRC to verify that it cannot keylog or otherwise detect+transmit password data. If it can then change all internet pw ASAP.

G'luck, jpers
