Every time I plug in a USB device, whether it's a printer or an audio
interface or anything else, my system briefly accesses the Internet
directly afterwards, uploading about 10k of data and downloading about
50k of data.  If I do a netstat while the access is in process, it gives
me this:

udp 0 0 Mycomputer.local:33839 dns-redirect-lb-:domain ESTABLISHED

The local port changes every time of course.  So apparently, every time
I plug a USB device in, some UDP packets are sent to some server.  That
seems to be very undesirable behavior.  The system should not initiate
communications with a server just because a USB device was plugged in.
