i've run a Norton AV scan. trend micro online scan,, Adaware and S & D and cleaned all spyware etc from my machine.. no virus's found but still getting these connections when I boot up. After from MSN i don't expect any live connections anyone know what the above are and how to clean my machine

It re-directs you to the WeeMee site http://www.weeworld.com/
which is linked to MSN messenger etc, do you let messenger run from start up?

It's a connection for MSN messenger, there is a wee-me tab on messenger itself so when you run MSN messenger it will automatically make whatever connections it needs for the various tabs.

thanks for that.. was getting abit worried.. just seen the tab you talking about in MSN shame you can't remove these

You can hide the tabs, open msn messenger, select tools, options, security and tell it to hide the tabs. I don't know if this will stop it opening the connections though but it's not spyware or a virus
