WHY IS CTRADER CONNECTING TO STRANGE HOSTS?
02 Jun 2015, 01:15


Hi,

I am running netstat (Real Nestat 3.1) on my pc to visualize connections.

I am noticing very strange connections by ctrader.exe to various hosts:

Dear Trader,

cTrader measures latency to every available proxy in order to connect to the proxy with minimal latency. We use proxies around the world to improve the connection quality for end-users. You can find information about the proxy you are connected in the down-right corner of cTrader.
