OK, I will have a look into it, thanks

to help with the osx firewall check out http://www.hanynet.com/waterroof/]WaterRoof

and to find the setting in the first place go to system preferences > sharing > firewall tab

You can block 888.com if you want, but that won't remove the root cause.

Those first three options, 'Enable plugins, java, and javascript' Disable them for the time being, see if that stops it
