Why does SVCD2DVD contacts the Internet every 5 minutes ???

[Dirk2003]

my firewall alerts the following:

" 'SVCD2DVD' from your computer wants to connect to www.**********.com [66.232.131.11], port 80 "

I think it's not a good style
to implement such "Ad- or Spy-ware" into a (payed) Software like SVCD2DVD !!

and why comes this alert evey 5 minutes ?

Chris ?

I never seen such a message in my firewall. If i didn't know better some cracked the program and put it in, but you got a bought version so that can't be it.

Dit you run adware if another program is doing it? Or a virus scanner to see if you got a virus?

You should use a better firewall
(Tiny Personal firewall - the old version 2.0.15 A is still the best)

Try www.*********.com (see my post above)
and then
try http://SVCD2DVDmpg.com
and then
tell me the difference 8)

Mmm. I see what you mean they are the same ip...
stick a www into the http://svd2dvdmpg.com and you get the correct site.
ie http://www.svcd2dvdmpg.com

It is neither Adware or spyware. It just polls svcd2dvdmpg.com to ensure the registration is valid. No data is sent up the wire. Block it if you wish - you will not suffer any loss of functionality.
