I happened to be running a network monitor to see the end of a longer download, when I noticed that it went back up to 1 MB/s (7890 Kbps) after the download had finished. Starting TCPView I see it is Opera constantly connecting to the net at an increasing rate.
I stopped Opera and it went away.
I restarted Opera and watched the usage slowly climb back up higher and higher even though I was not doing anything.
What could Opera be downloading?
Firefox is running simultaneously, without any activity.
If I start Maxthon, it also does nothing in idle.
So what is Opera doing? I could understand a short pre-fetch, but for hours?
I started a TCPView window and found it connects to fra02s22-in-f4.1e100.net, which is Google, but why would it download endlessly from Google?
I lack the knowledge to determine what it is connecting to and where it is downloading to, so if anyone could point me in the right direction, I would appreciate it.
I'm on W7 SP1 64, Opera 27.0.1689.76
Thanks
