No problem.

The reason for that is RABL. RABL was/is supposed to use the data from 
TrackSources to automatically make a DNSBL and tracking sources while in 
training could influence the accuracy of such a automatically made DNSBL. IHMO 
it would be better to disable TrackSources only if RABL queue is active. So 
people like you that use TrackSources for logging/graphing would get what they 
need while admins using TrackSources for RABL would still get accurate data for 
their RABL.
