Install any firewall to prevent programs from accessing internet without your permission. It may be a virus or a spy.

+1 for Comodo firewall...

I don't know wether it can work with Kaspersky AV 7, but once when I had tried installing KAV 7 after Comodo Firewall 3, the setup had notified me that KAV7 is incompatible with Comodo Firewall....

You can use NOD32 if you want with Comodo and please don't go for ZoneAlarm Free Firewall (though it can work with KAV7)....Comodo is better and not a resource hog like ZA...

But if you install ZA6 and then upgrade to ZA7 there is no problem ;)
