Re: weird Level3 IP space uploads

I'm glad I could help.

EG, good catch on the Auto-update thread, explains why it was happening.

Da Wiseguy strikes gold again! - There was a spate of performance problems recently with Microsoft and/or Windows update, and a couple of patches released for them. You may have that problem in PCs in your net.

See »Problem with Automatic Update since Tuesday

for more.

The society which scorns excellence in plumbing as a humble activity and tolerates shoddiness in philosophy because it is an exalted activity will have neither good plumbing nor good philosophy: neither its pipes or its theories will hold water.

I believe these were used in the past for Windows Auto-update.
You are absolutelly right ... apparently there is an auto-update that is stuck in a loop on quite a few computers!!! and not just on my network.

Thanks to everyone for your help! You hit the nail on the head.

According to IDserve it seems to be a Footprint Server. I believe these were used in the past for Windows Auto-update. Not sure if they still are. You should try and determine what is sending the packets. See
