Ran netstat for the heck of it today and I noticed some new connections I never seen before,
such as:
"csc-beap"
"bf1onepush"
"ya-in(some number)"
"yv-in(some number)"
"yx-in(some number)"
"chadlv06"
"chadlv07"
"microsoft-ds"

What's these?

No... Nobody uses Facebook on my computer...


Idk how... All of those show up in Netstat even with all browsers closed and nothing open.

Facebook has integrated itself into a lot of different applications as a profile and a lot of stuff links up with it. Possible something else is latching on to their servers (which probably host a bunch of various crap). Also I'd be surprised if you know absolutely everything that ever goes on with that computer since it's shared with your family.

The internet works.... in the background... Look at your task manager for networking activity with everything closed. You'll probably still see some pings of activity.

You're just paranoid. Chill, nothing to see here. Move along.

There's a tcp half open timeout.

The Facebook ones are probably the Facebook integration functions found on most websites.

Since it's all just web browsing traffic then nothing to worry about.
