Exclamation WM5 X51V trying to contact MS mothership

I had some weird IP spoofs on my firewall and I tracked it down to my x51v

11/10/2005 15:02:41.160 - IP spoof dropped - Source:169.254.2.2, 123, LAN - Destination:207.46.130.100, 123, WAN - MAC address: 00.0D.87.B8.E0.3F -

the IP address its trying to reach is 207.46.130.100
OrgName: Microsoft Corp
OrgID: MSFT
Address: One Microsoft Way
City: Redmond
StateProv: WA
PostalCode: 98052
Country: US

Can anyone else confirm this is the case and suggest a reason why it should try and how to stop it?

Nathan,

A reverse lookup shows that 207.46.130.100 is time.windows.com. I believe that to be the RTP Time server and so I guess your pocket pc is trying to get the time.

Did any of you see the BMW commercial where a voice tells him it's time to get his oil changed, and guy asks how they knew, the voice said your car told me, then he nervously asks what else did it tell you, because he was rocking out to "The Wheels on the Bus." ROFL Makes me wonder what else Redmond wants to know about us. Funny commercial though.
