Periodotic connections to http://mistletoe.canonical.com...

[Robert Heller]

Why would a Ubuntu 12.04 LTS system (a VM in this case) be making periodotic 
connections to http://mistletoe.canonical.com?  I am on a dialup connection 
and don't really want my VMs making regular 'phone home' connections.  I do 
things like updates using a mirror disk kept up-to-date with manual rsync's 
from a disk kept up to date with debmirror on a server on a fast network 
connection.  I don't need or want my VMs trying to be clever and using 
bandwidth outside of my control.
