Default legitimate update server

Hi

I just installed NOD32 with password and do on.
The Update server is set to Automatic

The problem is when updating, NOD32 tries to connect on HTTP to:
www.refdesk.com (that doesn't seem reliable (http://www.aallix.com/finding.php?page=free+trojan+virus)
or
gin.ba.euroweb.sk (located in slovenia)

Are those server legitimate for NOD32's updates?
If yes, is there a list of the server adresses used by NOD32 to update itself? (So that I can set-up my firewall). What is yours?

Thanks you in advance!

There is an open question on what servers are mirroring the downloads at this moment. Here's a thread that shows what other people are seeing, and it references yet another thread on this:

NOD32 access only on legitimate update servers. Updated are signed so you cant get wrong update.

It seems the reverse DNS record of 140.239.119.12 points to www.refdesk.com. Hopefully we'll make it to update the record shortly.
