OK, so while no programs have whined or complained, I get the feeling that something on my system is running portsnap without my knowledge. When I had set the schg flag on INDEX-9, an INDEX-9.bz2 file came up. I set the schg flag on that as well, and now I notice there are a bunch of files called .fetch.??????.INDEX-9.bz2 (where ?????? is a random string), as well as a file called .portsnap.INDEX. As far as I know, I don't have anything configured to run portsnap, but is there something that defaults to running portsnap occasionally? I couldn't find anything that would do that.

Thanks,
Naram Qashat
