Trust me I tried all of them. Right now, I want to find out if my computer is sending out my information to a server. I also want help figuring out if my computer is vulnerable again.
I ran a netstat on my computer and here is what I got. I ran it a second time about an hour later, and received non of the previous querys.
Also, I am connected through apple airport extreme.

Assuming Paul is your user name those connections are local.
However whilst that is just a general observation and doesn't have any answers, I assume this bothers you greatly. If so I would advise doing a Spyware scan of the system. Thereafter I would insert your windows CD upon reboot and repair windows system files to resolve that blue screen of death.
Avoid online virus scans as they contain spyware

Make sure that you do that in safe mode.
I don't really find anything suspicious in the screen-shots that you shared in your post above. Though to confirm it, you may run through your firewall logs once.
