I think Ad-Aware claims to find tracking programs.

I'm really not that computer savvy. The series of numbers sounds like an IP address.

Could this be a program that was hands-on installed on your computer by someone else? If you press Ctrl/Alt/Delete (at the same time but don't press twice or the computer will reboot) you will be able to see a list of the programs currently running on your computer.

Of course, this one is probably hidden and won't show up. I've heard of tracking cookies which you could take care of by deleting all your temp files and cookies.

I would try spybot and ad-aware in addition to a free scan at a place like cnet.

I wish I could be of more help but I'm out of my depth.
