too many TCP connctions

Hallo there,
i wonder if anyone had the same Problems with some internet providers,
and if so; they are caused by FCKeditor.

So here`s my problem :
Our provider closes our IP address because of too many connections to the webspace from one IP address.

I use the FCKeditor since some years to edit the content of our website , without any problems,
but since Dez 07 (our provider told me they didn`t do any special updates to their webservers at this time)
I have the problem of those "too many TCP connections" and no idea where they come from......
I tried Version 2.4 and 2.5 of FCKeditor with no difference.

Because there are no other "special" tools I use , I`m asking here, if some others had similar problems maybe with FCKeditor or do I have to think in other directions ?? ...

Thanks for your brain
Frank Geisweid

As next I´m going to switch back to FCKeditor 2.3 and test this ...

Re: too many TCP connctions

The editor is run on the client side, there are only a few files loaded from the server, so I don't understand how that could generate too many connections.

You should ask them to provide you more info about those connections, and also run a good antivirus on your PCs because the behavior would be more common for a trojan that it's running somewhere there.

Hi agakhan,

you can use a tool like "spybot search and destroy" to check if you have any troian installed, as alfonsoml suggested.
Check also your website statistics, perhaps you can find if there is something strange.
