RemoterFusion external server access

RemoterFusion seems to access a server that doesn't immediately imply affiliation with remoterlabs.com:

Code: Select all
RemoterFusion tries to access highearthorbit.com, TCP Port 80 (http)
IP: 69.163.146.192
Reverse DNS Name: ps13136.dreamhost.com
/Applications/RemoterFusion.app/Contents/MacOS/RemoterFusion

Should I worry about that or is this the intended behaviour?

Thanks
Markus

RemoterFusion connects to this URL to get the machine's (network) IP address:
http://highearthorbit.com/service/myip.php

This is a public URL to find the IP address openly used by many software applications:
try searching google for: "highearthorbit.com/service/myip.php"

So, nothing to worry about.

Thanks!,
Raf.
