    When starting Rufus 0.6.5 with "check for updates" enabled, Sygate reports: "C:\Program Files\Rufus\rufus.exe is trying to connect to azureus.sourceforge.net [66.35.250.209] using remote port 80 (HTTP - World Wide Web)." Why is Rufus trying to connect with Azureus??

      Hey,

      Yep they are both hosted on the same server (projects.sourceforge.net)... I guess if sygate has already resolved 66.35.250.209 to azureus.sourceforge.net then when Rufus tries to connect to rufus.sourceforge.net (also 66.35.250.209) it will assume that the address is azureus - sygate probably uses its own lookup table to decrease the amount of DNS lookups on each connection.
