I have a problem: always when my computer starts, there is a java.exe
process listening in the port 7676. I want to find out what it is to be able to delete it.
Is there any way that I can find that out?
I have seen another question here which lead me to download the Sysinternal's Process Explorer, but it didn't help me…

Use Sysinternal's Process Explorer. Like task manager, this application can show you all running processes.
But it can also show you the command line arguments used to launch the process: right click the column headers and select the "command line" column. This extra information will help you identify which java application is running in a given
java.exe
process.If that is not yet enough information, Process Explorer can also tell you which files, network connections, registry entries etc. are being used by the process.
update: as mentioned in the comments below, the standard Windows Task Manager can also show the command line. Go to "View" - "Select Columns..." and check "Command Line".
