I'm not sure what it is, but I don't have anything running while it is, don't have any security, nor a firewall, or anything... It's just straight up.

...er... uh... this is bad.
Mega-Bad.

If you have any 'traffic indicator' light on your modem or router, please observe it with you connected to your ISP but with you doing absolutely nothing... No browsing, no open browser apps... No e-mail... Nothing... Just be connected to your ISP... No keyboard or mouse activity... Nothing.
And, after at least 30-45 minutes, check to see what 'activity' is shown by your modem/router.

zombie 'infection' are an enormous problem and are very often not noted by so-called advanced anti-virus apps.

Try a free NOD32 scan on-line with Virus Scan: Use ESET's Online Antivirus Scanner

I don't have a activity monitor on either, and i have done virus scans with nothing found. Is there another way to check?
