System establishing low bandwidth connections to random IP addresses?

Decided to open up the resource monitor today and saw something strange. System (PID 4) establishes low bandwidth (all <1kb/s) connections to random IP addresses. They range anywhere from 1 b/s to 400 b/s, usually all outbound. 0 b down. ALWAYS. It would establish anywhere from 1 to 8 simultaneous connections, which would last for a couple of minutes, then die out. Couple minutes later, it repeats, with new IPs. I can't see anything out of the ordinary in HijackThis logs, and a quick scan by Malwarebytes Antimalware shows nothing. I'm running Win 8 RP x64. What are these things? Has anyone seen this before? A Google search only turns out one relevant result that suggests it may be a worm, but then the HijackThis/Malwarebytes results? I've attached a screenshot.
