AVG keep popping up a message saying it's connecting to a pop mail server at pcp09440136pcs.lascruces.nm.albuq.comcast.net even though I don't have an email client open... I've run a WHOIS search at astalavista.net and it comes back as below
Comcast Corporation
1500 Market Street
Philadelphia, PA 19102
US
Domain pcp09440136pcs.lascruces.nm.albuq.comcast.net resolves to 69.241.161.226
Port 80 seems closed.
fsockopen error: 60: Operation timed out
Ping statistics for 69.241.161.226:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 0, Lost = 4 (100% loss)
You think I might have some kinda virus on my PC? AVG hasn't picked anything up though!

possible mass mailing worm?
Can you not set AVG to block all connections to and from that address?
