[wplug] Weird network traffic..

[techmike]

Well I found the problem..   Red-carpet was checking for updates every 2 
hours.  I never noticed it before because I didn't have the daemon running 
at every bootup..

I actually tried ethereal but during the day when I'm not here there is a 
ton of network traffic and I'm unfamilier with creating filters in 
ethereal.

Thanks
Mike
