| 380871 | 2005-08-14 05:41:00 | Have noticed something funny since this genuine advantage rubbish has been forced upon me. Every time the PC starts up the genuine advantage is trying to phone home: Blocked Outgoing 14/Aug/2005 15:52:01 Generic Host Process for WIN32 Services TCP localhost 1041 207.46.248.119 80 C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\SVCHOST.EXE Blocked Outgoing 14/Aug/2005 15:52:01 Generic Host Process for WIN32 Services TCP localhost 1039 207.46.244.253 443 C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\SVCHOST.EXE Blocked Outgoing 14/Aug/2005 15:52:01 Generic Host Process for WIN32 Services TCP localhost 1038 64.4.21.125 443 C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\SVCHOST.EXE Blocked Outgoing 14/Aug/2005 15:52:01 Generic Host Process for WIN32 Services TCP localhost 1037 64.4.21.93 443 C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\SVCHOST.EXE Blocked Outgoing 14/Aug/2005 15:52:00 Generic Host Process for WIN32 Services TCP localhost 1035 207.46.248.119 80 C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\SVCHOST.EXE Blocked Outgoing 14/Aug/2005 15:51:58 Generic Host Process for WIN32 Services TCP localhost 1031 64.4.21.93 443 C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\SVCHOST.EXE Blocked Outgoing 14/Aug/2005 15:51:58 Generic Host Process for WIN32 Services TCP localhost 1030 207.46.199.93 443 C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\SVCHOST.EXE Blocked Outgoing 14/Aug/2005 15:51:58 Generic Host Process for WIN32 Services TCP localhost 1029 207.46.157.30 443 C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\SVCHOST.EXE One wonders why it fells the need to phone home? I do not have automatic updates turn on, do not run MSN or use hotmail so I wonder why it fells it needs to contact them as well? May be time for people to update thier firewall rules. |
