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.

3Does restarting chrome fix the problem? – soandos – 2012-07-22T20:06:07.517
That Little Snitch program is quite pointless considering the Same Origin policy, isn't it? I mean, in most cases it is probably ok if google wants to connect with google. (as for your problem either you have a tab or an extension of nypost active somewhere, try restarting as @soandos suggests) – Mahn – 2012-07-22T23:28:13.503
@Mahn Little Snitch is simply the tool being used to monitor outgoing traffic from the machine. What does this have to do with the same origin policy?

Which extensions do you use? – Umut Benzer – 2012-09-27T09:12:54.617
