Hi Tommy.

Had a quick look for ya on IANA,they said those IP's belong to RIPE NCC (ripe.net) which is these guys.

Sounds like they deal with Regional Internet Registries (RIRs),whois databases, and such.

Thanks. It's only a little bit iratating that 'system' never tried to connect to them, and since one day it does. Anyway it's nothing supsicous i think.

Probably some of your apps. is trying to update.

Have you got windows "auto update" service enabled? (Akamai is one of the IPs for windows updates_ the IP`s do vary) I have just looked at auotupdates and the connection attempt was to akamai_193.38.108.216
