RedCarpet has been downloading a lot on mine also. I removed it.

Subject: [NBLUG/talk] Automatic Redhat Downloads or a Hack?


My DSL connection has been sluggish for the past couple of days and while 
investigating it, I discovered that my Redhat 9 linux box was merrily 
downloading what at first glance look like Redhat updates.  I have used 
up2date and also Ximian's redcarpet to update the system manually but it was
a 
couple months ago.  Is it possible that I inadvertently set up one of the
two 
to automatically download updates, and if so how can I check and  turn it
off? 

Don
