Have you made any DCC connections with those people at those times? That's what it looks like.

Hi,

I've been trying to figure out why there is a "Startup.log" file on my desktop. I've searched mail archives and google, but didn't find anything about this. The file contains:

(Last octet of IP removed)

CONNECTION: [01/26/03 21:50 UTC] 62.163.176.xx
CONNECTION: [01/26/03 21:56 UTC] 67.192.41.xxx

Do you need help?X

After resolving a few of them, these are all people I know pretty well on IRC. I can't figure out what's causing this - I don't use a mIRC script, I don't have a firewall (XP firewall is disabled) -- I do have Norton 2003 Pro. I'm using Windows XP Pro on Service Pack 1a, but the file was created before I installed SP1a

I've checked my process list, and there's nothing running that shouldn't be.

Do you need more help?X

Has anything seen something similar or know what's causing this?

Thanks.
