Culling strange websites from "recently visited sites" list

Post by sbogolub »

Is it normal for the "Web Usage" section to show websites that you did not specifically visit in a web browser?

Is there some way to limit the results to only show sites that are displayed on-screen?

The router is showing my computer having gone to a bunch of domains I never knowingly visited.

Examples:
StevePCLAN 09/22 17:08:21 b.cdnpi.pe
StevePCLAN 09/22 17:08:21 c.cdnpi.pe
StevePCLAN 09/22 17:08:21 d.cdnpi.pe
StevePCLAN 09/22 17:08:21 ajax.googleapis.com
StevePCLAN 09/22 17:08:21 a.cdnpi.pe
StevePCLAN 09/22 17:08:22 www.google-analytics.com
StevePCLAN 09/22 17:08:24 1.2.3.4
StevePCLAN 09/22 17:08:24 trends.builtwith.com


Also, some of the URLs are pink while the rest are blue? Does anyone know what this differentiation indicates?

These will be advertising sites etc. Even though you didn’t notice, these sites were moving data around "on your behalf"
