Something else that occured to me just now is that the lsof command could also be good for this. Executing "lsof -c curl" will list the files (caution, this can include libraries and sockets) that are in use by curl. This could help identify what's going on. >Re requesting good vs bad, be clear that what you're >asking for is opinions from people who might not be >trustworthy, so then what you have to do is try to get >enough opinions for you to be able to make up your own >mind. True, it'd be like the Wikipaedia. Virus writers could easily spam the database. Over time however, reports should be able to identify suspicious behavior and overwhelm spammed entries. It'd be interesting to see this integrated with LS. An extra button in the LS dialog to "Report the connection attempt to the ObDev database". This would send in the connection data as well as an optional comment. -- -- arno s hautala /-\ [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- -- _______________________________________________ Littlesnitch-talk mailing list [email protected] http://at.obdev.at/mailman/listinfo/littlesnitch-talk
