Default OT: SPYWARE/TROJAN and Off Topic!

While trying out the new patch, I was very unpleasantly surprised when while trying to play a SINGLE PLAYER test game, with only myself and an AI opponent, I was unpleasantly jerked to the desktop with a security alert! Dominions II was trying to phone home, and my firewall had intercepted a suspicious request.

What on earth is 82.182.97.69 30729?

I cannot identify this port or protocol. Reverse-DNS identifies this IP as "1-1-2-16a.msp.mlm.bostream.se".

Has somebody managed to slip some sort of odd spyware trojan into the new Dom2 patch?
