    Have you made any DCC connections with those people at those times? That's
    what it looks like.

    Hi,
    
    I've been trying to figure out why there is a "Startup.log" file on my
    desktop. I've searched mail archives and google, but didn't find anything
    about this. The file contains:
    
    (Last octet of IP removed)
    CONNECTION: [01/26/03 21:50 UTC] 62.163.176.xx
    CONNECTION: [01/26/03 21:56 UTC] 67.192.41.xxx
    CONNECTION: [01/26/03 22:01 UTC] 67.192.41.xxx
    CONNECTION: [02/06/03 08:46 UTC] 65.65.81.xxx
    CONNECTION: [02/06/03 08:46 UTC] 65.65.81.xxx
    CONNECTION: [02/06/03 08:49 UTC] 80.194.40.xxx
    CONNECTION: [02/06/03 09:06 UTC] 144.134.163.xx
    CONNECTION: [02/06/03 09:11 UTC] 216.249.81.xx
    CONNECTION: [02/06/03 09:46 UTC] 136.165.87.xxx
    CONNECTION: [02/06/03 09:47 UTC] 211.28.63.xxx
    
    
    After resolving a few of them, these are all people I know pretty well on
    IRC. I can't figure out what's causing this - I don't use a mIRC script, I
    don't have a firewall (XP firewall is disabled) -- I do have Norton 2003
    Pro. I'm using Windows XP Pro on Service Pack 1a, but the file was created
    before I installed SP1a
    
    I've checked my process list, and there's nothing running that shouldn't
    be.
    
    Has anything seen something similar or know what's causing this?
    
    
    Thanks.
