I use Firefox as my browser and i don't use any bit torrent clients. I installed a firewall to monitor it but I cant get a clue to which program is doing that. Is this normal? I have a very slow connection (Asianet Homenet 399)and I want my bandwidth to be utilized to the max for the downloads that I start consciously ). It is also a bit creepy.  Thanks --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ "Freedom is the only law".
