Defender IP addresses

[Guest]

Hi all,

I noticed two active "Generic Host Process for Win32 Services" running on
port 80 in my firewall log. Some quick hunting seems to point to these being
Microsoft address but I wanted to be sure. Can anyone confirm that
207.46.156.254 and 206.24.233.62 are MS addresses and are OK to be listening
to 80?

Thank you!
David

IIRC, that has something to do with IPv6. If you are not experimenting or developing using IPv6 then remove it from your NIC properties and the connection will go away.

it is best to use the above site to check that your Port 80 is close and in
stealth mode.
