I've got the above (Ripinapdmon) running as a service on my laptop, does anyone know what it is/does?  I've done a search on Google and msn but it doesn't come back with any results.

Thanks.

Give in a couple of days, Chris, and it will point at this page  

That sounds like a glib answer, but then *someone* who knows what it is may be able to let us know ... and anyone who wants to reach us from the archive that Google indexes can email graham@wellho.net

Frankly .. at this stage all I could do is make a random guess that it's going be be either a Reverse IP lookup daemon ... or a piece of malware

Even for ripinap all I got was

On a page translated from Japanese to English about a community, it seems, in Italy!

Thanks for the response, will look back here in a few days

hope your second reply wasn't taking the pizza....
