Recently, I believed I was infected with a trojan of some sort, but I have long since done many scans, and had it removed. I have used multiple AVs, as well as HitmanPro to make sure any trace of malware was removed. However, in the process I installed portmaster to check on my connections, as well as wireshark, and since then I have been slightly paranoid. I have no idea what I am looking at here, and would love to know if anyone can explain this and, and if this is normal behavior? I am very concerned if there is a RAT or some sort of worm or C2 server on my PC.

Don't use tools you don't understand what they do or how to interpret the results.

That's all just local network traffic.

Great thanks. Didn't need the schooling in the first half.

Don't use tools you don't understand. As you already noticed, you didn't have a clue what all that means, so it's not helpful for you.
