I'm using Chrome 21.0.1180.49 beta on Mac OS X 10.7.4.

Did some Googling and can't figure this out.

I visited a page on nypost.com earlier this morning. Just noticed that Little Snitch is reporting that nypost.com is being called every 4-6 seconds or so. I closed the tab after reading the story, a few hours ago.

I created a rule in Little Snitch denying access to nypost.com, but Chrome is apparently still connecting to it.

(1) Why? and

(2) How can I put an end to this?

Thanks in advance for any thoughts.

Does it still happen after you completely close Chrome and restart?

If so:

  1. Disable all your plugins / extensions / etc.

  2. Go to chrome://net-internals/ in a new tab and capture the traffic. Find out any referrers, etc. which are triggering this traffic.

  3. Kill whatever process is triggering the traffic from #2

If it still happens, complain on the user forums and offer to provide a HAR file and someone from Google will probably contact you in the forum.

Use Ghostery. Enable blocking and enable the auto-update feature. Enjoy.
