X-Enigmail-Version: 1.4.4 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Archives-Salt: fd72bde0-b3e3-4c82-86e1-514531b05e22 X-Archives-Hash: a50147eae3a90a86f8553e323ce6922c Howdy, I have this little weather "applet" thingy down at the bottom of my desktop in the thing I think they call the panel. Anyway, the weather thing has been sending something for HOURS now. I have logged out of KDE, reset the network and even the router just to see if it would die. As soon as I login or the router comes back up, it start sending data again. I can't get it to stop. As a last resort, I took the thing off my panel thingy. It still sends data like crazy. Does anyone know how to kill this thing? I'd like to surf the net without this thing hogging up my DSL connection. While I am at it. I'm supposed to get my weather stuff from NOAA or at least that is where it came from ages ago. Ever since I went from KDE3 to KDE4, it wants to come from wetter.com which doesn't work to begin with. This is what I think it is doing to my network. It is trying to get data that doesn't exist to begin with so it just keeps trying. Anybody know how to beat this thing silly? By the way, using iftop, that is where all this traffic is going to. Dale :-) :-) -- I am only responsible for what I said ... Not for what you understood or how you interpreted my words!
