Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubuntuone-client

I am using Ubuntu 9.10 on my home laptop. Today I installed and configured Ubuntu One. I also have Firestarter installed on my machine. I was baffled at first to see that "Ubuntu One Client" connection to the cloud is displayed in Firestarter as

Source Destination Port Service Program
<My LAN IP> 174.129.241.144 HTTPS Python

At first I thought my firewall has been compromised, and some one is stealing data. However I started stopped Ubuntu One to check that the above connection also comes / goes.

For better user readability, please can the program name be changed to Ubuntu One Client rather than Python.

Also doing a who-is on the destination IP, I found it belongs to amazon and not canonical, is that OK?

I tested this and you are correct that Ubuntu One shows up as Python. I also tested a couple of other applications. Gwibber and Lernid also show up as Python. It seems that this is applicable to all the Python applications I tested. I think this might be a bug for firestarter.
