Hi,

> Is CREATOR OWNER ceated by Win XP?

Yes, this is quite normal.

> Does Windows have a way to trace ingoing/ outgoing internet data traffic?

The firewall does not track outgoing traffic, only incoming. You will
generally find this information in the pfirewall.log file located in the
C:\Windows folder. Third party firewalls often offer much better logging
capabilities.
