MY IPS system has been warning me of regular - time
initiated http messages to www.kde.org. These messages
are auto sent 24/7 even by idle Workstations. I cannot
test a gnome desktop, however I think they may not be
auto sent.

Does anyone know

1. Their purpose
2. What is in the self initiated http traffic.

NB These messages are not looking for updates as their
appears no functional ability to download only KDE
updates. Update messages ARE self initiated at a
designated time, however these messages are sent every
2 then 8 minutes 24/7.

Any Ideas.

P.S Please refrain from using the expression "digital

See attached report for a 30 day period.

Many thanks and Hi to all - have been away for a long time
