Hi folks,
I been noticing the past few weeks that something is communicating with
Yahoo at these addresses:
cs210p2.msg.sp1.yahoo.com
rdis.msg.vip.sp1.yahoo.com
I thought it was Kopete getting some info, profile pics maybe, from the
server. Thing is, it does this for a really long time. It is also

data as well. I have no idea why it is doing this or what it is sending.

closed the Kopete app but the data still carries on. This "transfer" has
I think it's normal.
The first address is one of their pool of messaging servers and the
second is a web server, probably like you said for retrieving
additional info. The sending of data could be the http request, or
updating your status/picture/whatever kopete may be doing. You could
try blocking it and see what breaks. :)
Likely true as Yahoo!'a interfaces are highly AJAX driven - with their own PHP
oriented widget kit as well.
So if you have a web page open to any Yahoo! site that is probably what is doing
it.

Wouldn't it stop tho if I closed Kopete? I'm not using Yahoo's
messenger tho. I don't think they have one now.
I did also trying closing Seamonkey to but the traffic continues. I
very rarely go to yahoo.com.
Also, this can carry on for a really long time. This can last over 30
minutes.
