    Using Wireshark, I examined the first few packets
    that WindowsXP SP2 exchange with my DSL modem.
    (Kerio 2.1.5 is used.)

    1. From the modem to 199.3.230.2 a
    DNS Standard query A teredo.ipv6.microsoft.com is issued.
    What is the purpose of that DNS query?

    2. From the modem to 199.3.230.2 a
    DNS Standard query A www.paypal.com is issued.
    What is the purpose of that DNS query?

    How one would locate the (bastard) program/process that issues
    the request?
    Thanks for any guidance.
