Unknown packet
rgdot:
Hope someone here can help decipher something, I randomly ran Nirsoft's smartsniff on this laptop I am now, just as a security measure of sorts to check it. One of the captured packets is odd, to me at least.
--- Code: Text ---==================================================Index : 1Protocol : TCPLocal Address : 192.168.0.126Remote Address : 90.181.227.232Local Port : 50321Remote Port : 443Local Host : Remote Host : Service Name : httpsPackets : 2Data Size : 1 BytesTotal Size : 134 BytesData Speed : 0.0 KB/SecCapture Time : 2017-04-04 11:33:30 AM:061Last Packet Time : 2017-04-04 11:33:30 AM:279Duration : 00:00:00.218Local MAC Address : Remote MAC Address: Local IP Country : Remote IP Country : ================================================== 00000000 00
Just that 00000000 00 randomly once in a while when I leave smartsniff running, to that IP or others that my look up says "Organization: O2 Czech Republic iol.cz"
Any thoughts?

A reverse DNS on 90.181.227.232 resolves to a site in the nos-avg.cz domain.
That has something to do with AVG (the antivirus company). You might want to ask them about it, or try turning off any automatic update functionality for a while and see if it stops.
rgdot:
The site I used didn't show the avg domain, only iol.cz. Wasted my time and yours :( Thanks. Will deal with the blocking (or not blocking)
Incidentally Avast is installed and this reminds me Avast bought AVG a while back...

Yup, he's right...AVG.
From a handy little FF add-on that I use for tracing customer IP addresses, at work.
app103:
It could possibly be related to a browser security add-on.
