Recently I got a meesage from my Norton Internet Security (NIS) that Outlook is trying to access the internet (ip address 65.196.38.11) using TCP/IP. My first thoughts were this might be one of my pop3 or smtp mail servers. To confirm it I checked my mail servers. But their IP address were different (pop3.attglobal.net -32.97.166.20 and asmtp.attglobal.net - 32.97.166.50). On further investigation NIS found that 65.196.38.11 was in Boston and is assigned to one "Sarah Testing" based Greensboro, NC. I blocked the attempt and there was no message from MS Outlook. My questions are - Why MS Outlook was trying to access this server and why this server ? |

There is no answer at this time. |

I have puzzled over this for a little bit and the only thing that I can even think of is that you might have recieved an email with a html link pointing to that ip address... Other than that this is the only other info I could come up with. You might try contacting the ISP and asking if this ip address is assigned to a server of some sort or if this is someones home computer. They might be able to give you some more info.

I suggest updating Virus defs and scanning for viruses. This sounds more like a possible trojan horse than random activity. Other than that, I concur with nathanrice, contact the ISP and ask for more information on the customer. |
