Which browser? > > But I'm not downloading anything! But your browser might be e.g. extension updates, synchronising bookmarks/extensions/passwords if you have sync enabled. Most likely it's just checking for extension updates - you'd expect a "high download rate" - just check your network statistics and see whether it's a "high volume". I use KDE so I use KNemo show traffic (transfer speed) as well as hourly, weekly and monthly volume statistics. I'm not familiar with the equivalents for other desktop environments. ethstats is one of several CLI tools that will do the same thing. > > How to find out which program is doing this mysterious "download" and > block this download? $ netstat --inet will show you where you are connecting to. e.g.:- $ netstat --inet -p (sorry about the line wrapping).

You can find out them with "whois $domainname" If you use "netstat --inet -pc" You'll get a continuous update of what's connecting to what. So start netstat and then open your browser - and you'll see a lot of connections to mozilla (if you are running Iceweasel/Firefox). > > I'm using Debian Squeeze. > > Thank you, > Markos > > Kind regards -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
