Today ZoneAlarm shows a pop-up window indicating that WgaTray.exe is
trying to access the Internet:
Identification: Not available in ZoneAlarm
Application: WgaTray.exe
Destination IP: 72.247.127.56NS
I looked up the IP address and it goes to:
C:\>nslookup 72.247.127.56
Name: a72-247-127-56.deploy.akamaitechnologies.com
Address: 72.247.127.56
and http://cqcounter.com/whois/ shows:
OrgName: Akamai Technologies
OrgID: AKAMAI
Address: 8 Cambridge Center
City: Cambridge
StateProv: MA
PostalCode: 02142
Country: US
I clicked DENY in ZoneAlarm and Windows XP performance has greatly
improved including a significant decrease in network traffic.
Why would blocking WgaTray.exe cause this change?
