htt daemon eating up my internet connection

Hello all,

I am running Fedora Core 2 and when I reboot, a htt daemon starts up and 
starts reading havoc with my internet connection. I have been simply killing 
the thing after a reboot, but I would really like to understand what's 
happening. I have asked this question to some so called Linux experts and 
they say " http is the web server". After explaining that I know that, and my 
question is about htt, they don't have a clue.

First of all, what's htt for? and where is it being started? I looked into the 
rc. directories for a clue, but I couldn't see it listed by name. I don't 
remember having this problem when I built the machine, and I can't tell you 
when it started being a problem either. If anyone can shed light on this 
matter I would be very thankful.

Please keep in mind that all I want to do is stop the htt daemon from starting 
in the first place.

Thanks,

Paul Dussault
