Why is the core service "mapspushd" contacting various (web)adresses? What's that service for?

Hello,
my firewall notified me that the core service "mapspushd" is occasionally contacting various (web)servers for example of various "news" sites (all over the world with varying TLDs, .co.uk, .ca, .com etc.), as well as service sites, such as ebay or advertising providers? – Got to be honest that is a bit dubious.
What is this core service for?
Thanks in advance.

Hi, i'm going to post my screenshots here too. Hope someone help us!
Edit: By the way, running a google search about "an tacoda net" , gives back all sorts of wonderful info about it. I really hope apple has nothing to do with such malware.
I have ran adware medic, and followed all security guides. I have no harmfull extensions, and nothing i can possibly think that can harm my mac.

  • Why is the formatting in my Contact list screwed up?

    Why is the formatting in my Contacts list screwed up?  The State in the address list is missing and "Netherlands" is added to all of my US addresses. This occurs after I sync in iTunes, but the Contact is listed normally in Outlook.

    I am using Apple Mail.  For some reason it is working right again. Who knows why!
    Thank you for taking the time to reply to me.  Even though you didn't sollve my problem, I appreciate the effort!

  • Why does the i5 add a contact to my contacts list for every person I have ever emailed?  My 4 didn't.

    Why does the i5 add a contact to my contacts list for every person I have ever emailed using Outlook and Gmail?  The i4 didn't have this issue.

    Hi drewskiiiiiiiii,
    If you are having issues with your iPhone's Contacts application acting oddly, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
    First, quit all running applications and test again -
    Force an app to close in iOS
    Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPhone -
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -
    How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • HT201317 I had my photo stream on and my icloud all set up, i just had the screen replaced and they somehow lost all the photos off my phone, but why wont the photo's reload back on to my iphone now that im connected to wifi again, where are all my photos

    I had my photo stream on and my icloud all set up, i just had the screen replaced and they somehow lost all the photos off my phone, but why wont the photo's reload back on to my iphone now that im connected to wifi again, where are all my photos???

    When photos are added to the photo stream album on a device (either due to a new photo having been taken or having been synced from another device using the stream) they remain in the album.  However, the syncing process involves copying the photos to the photo stream server where they are kept for a maximum of 30 days, up to 1000 photos.  If a device is reset or the stream is turned off or turned back on again (or in your case, the device was repaired), the photos that were on the device's photo stream album are gone and the only ones to appear are those that are currently on the servers (recall the 30 day limit).
    If some of your photos are older than 30 days, then they are no longer stored on the cloud and hence are not synced down to the iphone.
    Recall, photo stream is just a syncing service, it is not designed as a storage service for photos.  Always sync photos to a computer for archiving.

  • Wiki has no groups: 'Enable the following services for this group' is None

    Our Leopard Server is an OD Master and have followed the Wiki setup procedure detailed in the Web Services Overview PDF. Believe I have got that part configured correctly and am able to access the web/wiki frontend on our Intranet.
    Issue is that I am unable to get any groups to be available on the Wiki and therefore cannot actually do anything.
    I believe it is an issue with the 'Enable the following services for this group' setting as it always displays None.
    I have read various posts/discussions but am no wiser as to the issue.
    Sorry if this is a noob question, any help gratefully received.
    Matt

    Your not alone, I have this exact same problem.
    I'm running a fully working BIND 9 and OD Master, so that's not your issue. My groups are without a doubt in the /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 domain.
    When I connect with Directory.app, all services are grayed out and cannot be enabled. If I attempt to enable them in WGM they appear to apply when I hit save, but if I focus another group and come back it says (None).
    My logs are below:

  • Creating the Windows Service for the Database Instance

    Hello, I am using the PeopleTools 8.52 Installation for Oracle documentation and was in Task 6A-2: Creating the Windows Service for the Database Instance.
    After I type in
    oradim -new -sid ORCL -intpwd manager -startmode auto -pfile C:\Oracle\database\initORCL.ora
    I had encountered these errors:
    OPW-00005: File with same name exists - please delete or rename
    DIM-00019: create service error
    O/S-Error: (OS 1073) The specified service already exists.
    Please advise.... Thank you in advance!

    Hi, thank you for your reply!
    After I typed oradim -delete -sid ORCL, it shows this:
    Unable to stop service, OS Error = 1062
    Instance deleted.
    Then, I:
    Set ORACLE_SID=ORCL
    oradim -new -sid ORCL -intpwd manager -startmode auto -pfile C:\Oracle\database\initORCL.ora
    Then, it shows:
    OPW-00005: Files with same name exists - please delete or rename
    Instance created.
    Does it mean no error already and I can proceed?

  • Managing the mail service for WebCenter Spaces

    I need to setup the mail service in WebCenter Spaces and could use some assistance. I have a standalone Linux DEV box that has WebCenter 11.1.1.2 installed. I have Documents, Discussions, wikis+blogs all working in this instance.
    Now, I need to configure the mail service for this DEV instance to an SMTP mail server but I don't have any experience with this part. Has anyone setup the mail service using the Linux sendmail or Exchange 2003? How did you setup the external application for the mail server if you want to use Sendmail? Any help is appreciated.

    Hi Everybody
    I am also having similar problems. I could configure everything except for the mail service.
    I have the SMTP port but do not have IMAP details as our IT team does not maintain the IMAP.
    Please let me know how can I configure mail service with the SMTP details only.
    Your timely help would be much appreciated as we are in between a project development.

    Usually, where there are issues like that, it has to do with incompatible programs that may be loaded at system startup. So, in System Preferences, look at your login ID, and login items, and see if any programs listed there should be updated to run with Snow Leopard. While in System Preferences, look at the bottom of the window where you may find some programs listed also. Check them too.
    On your scanner, HP changed the way the scanners work under Snow Leopard. See this HP document: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01846935&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en &os=219&product=3739150&sw_lang=#N377 . Scroll down and click the scanning twistie.
