Legit connection avast! --> factsmgt.com??
« on: April 19, 2010, 10:05:00 PM »
My firewall is recording numerous intermittent connections to an IP range on port 80 -- 63.84.95.11:80 / 63.84.95.42:80 / 63.84.95.50:80 / 63.84.95.75:80 -- for which it is dropping packets.

An IP lookup reports these IPs as Akamai servers, but at least one seems to lead to factsmgt.com, apparently a tuition assistance website/com (?!) The firewall logs reveal that the connecting app is avastsvce.exe -- can anyone confirm that this connection is expected, legit, and should be allowed?  If not, what steps should be taken re my avast! installation?
