Does anyone have a clue why my computer would try to connect to pocketgpsworld.com when I haven't visited the site for about a year?

Anyone clever with networking who could help me figure out what program is initiating this?

Cheers
Tim

I was using wireshark to try and diagnose an internet problem.

I was being thick - I forgot I had a newsfeed setup.

The Beeb's site explains RSS as well as anyone, see here.

We have RSS feeds for many of our forums.
