Ok im not trying to be a hacker or anything but i stumbled across this video that didnt explain very clearly on how to see who is connected to your computer. I understand how to pull up netstat and use the [-a], [-n],[-o] but i dont understand what is: listening, established, close wait, ect also what is PID and how it relates to the windows task manager?

Do you want to know who is on your network or who is connected to your computer. Netstat tells the latter but not who is on the entire network.
Listening -- port is open an waiting for traffic
established -- port is connected and in use
waiting -- port is waiting for data or to close the connection
PID is the process identification number of what process is being used for each item.
