sophos autoupdate tries to contact sharethis.com, tribune.com and other sites

maphido

Hello,

I am a bit concerned. I installed little snitch today and noticed that sophos autoudate requested to contact sites like sharethis.com, latimes.com, tribune.com and foodnetwork.com (everytime port 80 http) and refused to update if I denied the connection using little snitch.

I run Version 8.0.6C on a Mac with OS 10.8.1

Can someone please explain this behaviour? 

Thank you,

Manuel

    Hello Christian,

    thank you for the answer, I looked up the IP adresses with a IP lookup service and it showed me several DSL Connection Servers.

    My bad, I should have had a closer look at the IP adresses and not just the site names little snitch provides.

    Thank you again,
