Seems that I may have found part of the problem. I had ktorrent running
as a automatically startup application.
I have also enabled my Firestarter but still find that 'netstat -a'
shows a lot of connections that I cannot explain.
Doing a;
netstat -pta | egrep LISTEN
shows;
tcp 0 0 linux:mysql *:*
LISTEN 1408/mysqld
tcp 0 0 *:www *:*
LISTEN 1954/apache2
tcp 0 0 *:ssh *:*
LISTEN 1109/sshd
tcp 0 0 linux:ipp *:*
LISTEN 1132/cupsd
tcp 0 0 *:gdomap *:*
LISTEN 1489/gdomap
tcp6 0 0 [::]:ssh [::]:*
LISTEN 1109/sshd
tcp6 0 0 linux:ipp [::]:*
LISTEN 1132/cupsd
Which I would expect, but;
netstat -a | egrep CONNECTED | wc -l
Shows;
566
So my big question is what are all these connections that are established?
