Hi,
I see that i have multiple TCP sessions established with facebook.
They come up even after i reboot my laptop and dont login to facebook!
D:\Documents and Settings\gkent>netstat -a | more
Active Connections
Proto Local Address Foreign Address State
TCP gkent:3974 www-10-02-snc5.facebook.com:http ESTABLISHED
TCP gkent:3977 www-11-05-prn1.facebook.com:http ESTABLISHED
TCP gkent:3665
a184-84-111-139.deploy.akamaitechnologies.com:http ESTABLISHED
[clipped]
Any idea why these connections are established (with facebook and
akamaitechnologies) and how i can kill them? Since my laptop has
several connections open with facebook, what kind of information is
flowing there?
I also wonder about the kind of servers facebook must be having to be
able to manage millions of TCP connections that must be terminating
there.
