RE: Who is my i5 trying to connect to, and why?

Yeah..,but take the results with a grain of salt. It's only partially
accurate. I just looked up my IP address for my iSeries, and it reports it
as being in Maryland, some 1500 miles from it's actual location.  

Maryland is probably (no idea...) the home of my ISP's main router or
something like that.

You can see where they come from with:

For example, 89.122.213.8 is from Romania.
