Where did you get your copy of Wireshark? The official installers are available
at https://www.wireshark.org and signed by "Wireshark Foundation, Inc." We
don't host anything at Akamai and the installer code shouldn't open any
sockets, to Akamai or anywhere else.

Did you download Wireshark from download.com or some other third party service?
If so you should stop doing that.
