Locating info on IPs sucking my bandwidth.

[bbwannabe]

I'm using Palemoon (a performanance enhanced version of firefox for Windows) and one of my applications (cfosspeed) is showing that something from this program is taking a lot of the bandwidth of my connection. Usually so much so that I can't browse when it happens. It shows me the IP of where it's coming from but no info on what site it's from if it is from a site. Even an empty browser window causes this to happen.
Ran Malwarebytes and got nothing relevant to the browser.
Running AV program now but I don't think it'll bring up anything.

Is there a way to find out if an add-on or such is accessing/sending a lot of data, or usuable data from just an ip number and port?

Entering netstat /a in a command window will give a list of all listening and established connections.

Private Firewall can provides a log as well as a Port tracking section. It's a free download.

needs to be run in a CMD pseudo-dos window.

Alternatively try TDPView from Russinovich' toolkit.
