Is this normal ??

CacheFly seems to be a 'streaming server solution' company

I would suggest that FF really didn't need to communicate with this site and your anti-virus package got it's knickers in a twist perhaps

Hiya There
You could of course be right

I did a full scan with kapersky (with advanced rootkit detection etc ticked) and SpyWare Doctor and found nothing amiss, what the ''Integrity check'' caught was an attempt to connect to cacheflys servers at the time the installer for FF was launched, I was at the time doing a complete re-install so it is possible that its from another application, however both the web address and numbered numbered URL did check out with caheflys servers, so the warning was real. It matters little as the attempt in any case was blocked.

I will re-instate a disk image and try intsalling FF again with internet logging on, it is possible that the program i installed directly before FF was the culprit and that when i installed another program (namely FF) thats when the attempt was made.

I will let you know the results, I would also like to point out that it is because of the high regard which i hold the FF team in that i blocked the attempt and installed anyway, something which I normally wouldnt do with a program that i really thought suspect.

it also may not be a trojan, but a call-home device/routine, which has become very common in software these days. and not all of those are malicious, for example, automatic updates to windows.
