jimbo60640 Registered: 04/08/10 Posts: 16 Loc: City Of The Big Shoulders	Hi Kids - I'm a tad miffed: I just updated OS to 10.6.5 and now when I boot I get "awacsd" wants to connect to hello.connectivity.me.com to connect. I say "yes/once". Then another requester pops up asking for the same permission only this time hello.connectivity.me.com is appended .akadns.net. This seems to be related to akamai. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1923545/Screenshots/Screen%20shot%202010-11-10%20at%2011.02.26%20PM.pdf http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1923545/Screenshots/Screen%20shot%202010-11-10%20at%2011.04.19%20PM.pdf Does anybody have any idea what this is??? I also ran a delocalizer after OS update (which might be interfering with the firewall?). Worrisome.......
