[QUOTE="simmerskool, post: 721982, member: 61091"] using chrome this morning thru my usual (& safe) vpn connection connected to my bank. I was also running crowdinspect in the background. When I was finished with bank, I closed the tab, opened a new tab to a blank page so I was expecting to see no connections. crowdinspect continued to show that I had 1 TCP "established" connection to my bank. I thought that was odd or a mistake in crowdinspect so I opened tcpview and it showed the same "established" connection. I had to completely closed chrome to break this ongoing established connection. Is this normal condition with chrome or all browsers. You think you closed the last connection, but it's still "established." I thought I was careful in that I had only the bank page open, I exited the bank, then closed its tab, went to a new tab, and then refreshed the blank tab, thinking that would flush everything, but that was not the case.
