I've just started running Snort on a machine here to try and get more info 
about this, but I was hoping someone else might have spotted this on their 
systems.

I've got 1 NT4 Workstation here that once a day connects to 62.49.150.165 
on a high port (last time on 26957) for 3-5 minutes and passing 652 bytes 
(according to my PIX log), and once a day to 62.49.198.207 again on a high 
port (on 13826 last time) again for 3-5 minutes passing 652 bytes. I've tried 
connecting the second address on a couple of ports to see what would 
happen and I get a UDP query back on port 137 (dropped at my PIX), which 
seems very odd to me. Both of these addresses are assigned to Demon 
Internet and from a traceroute appear to be allocated for ADSL use.

The connection to the first IP is always around 8:50 am, just about the time 
the PC is turned on, although rebooting during the day doesn't trigger it (will 
try cold starting later when it's free). The second connection varies (Friday 
was 14:44, today was 11:12) so I'm not sure what it's based on.
