Default Re:akimai ???

You have the spelling wrong..they are harmless and most likely trying to download something to you that Your OS or one of your Programs you have on your PC either requested or is setup to automatically download..there is no akimai, but if you are sure you have the spelling correct...lets talk some more.

See these links..
