The Patri0t Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Ok, so I installed 64-bit version of Windows 7 beta from Microsoft's website. I am doing updates, I went into Performance Monitor and checked Network stats and there it mentions receiving data from some strange domain name and not windows update website. See the screenshot, I was doing nothing else at time of this. Only thing happening was Windows updates. I checked who is of domain mentioned there but can't figure it out. Someone??? It is linw.net Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/722294-strange-domain-showing-in-network-stats/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Carlton Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 I'm gonna say it's a reverse lookup address of your public IP address. Is your IP 87.248.212.26?

Banjo Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 It's llnw, not linw. It's owned by Limelight Networks, a content distributor. Probably hired by Microsoft for hosting updates or something Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/722294-strange-domain-showing-in-network-stats/#findComment-590426142 Share on other sites More sharing options...
