1Password — Secure every sign-in for every app on every device.
Uneasy Silence reports that Adobe CS3 apps are phone home periodically with connections to “192.168.112.2o7.net” — a web server whose name is clearly designed to look like a local area network IP address (particularly when the “o” is capitalized in “2o7.net”).
This is a disgrace, whatever the actual reason for the connections.
