| Mar 3, 2015 at 18:30 | comment | added | asimovwasright | Yes, I should have mentioned that in the question, sorry, it happens regardless of tabs, as soon as you open chrome. I have no extensions apart from Google Docs, which would unlikely be the cause. | |
| Mar 3, 2015 at 16:53 | comment | added | user42178 | What if you open Chrome but don't open any tabs ? Do the connections still appear ? If yes, it's an extension, if not it's just a website linking to a resource on that server, nothing to be afraid of. | |
| Mar 3, 2015 at 16:33 | comment | added | asimovwasright | Netstat shows in this case that the process origin is Chrome itself.. (screen shot att.) I have no extensions active at all. (Apart from Google Docs) Now I am thinking this is an adware bug?? | |
