I opened 'help and support' in WinXP and saw 5 hits to remote locations on
port 80. Three hits were to IPs at Microsoft. Two were to LEVEL3
Communications.

I closed it, opened it again. This time there were two hits. One to
Microsoft. One to UUNET.

I looked on Google, saw a suggestion to turn off search options. Did that.
