i've been noticing lately that AVG been scanning outgoing pop mails... and i checked the AVG log files and found out that utorrent is the culprit..
the process was initiated by PID 528, which is check is the utorrent client.

i've check utorrent's website FAQs and i can't find any references to this events..

anyone please advice..

what I can gather from that thread and your log, you are connecting to a client with the port set as 110, usually used by pop3 (read more)

basic P2P, you're connecting to another client and that client use port 110.
