Why is Google Chrome pinging mdioussrvd, azwvtdbpjh, lblhkhlklj and other random hosts?
I notice when I start up Google Chrome it makes a few bad requests to random host names.

I'm wondering what is causing this and/or what the purpose is. At first I thought I had a malicious extension, but I deleted my `~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome` folder, deleted Google Chrome, restarted the system, then re-downloaded a clean copy of the latest beta, followed by starting the application using `open -n -a 'Google Chrome.app' --args --disable-extensions`, only to find the same behavior with a fresh install.

The host names are random string each time the program starts. I don't have anything in my hosts file so they are showing erros, as they are not mapped to any particular IP.

I also tried running a file search with grep in both the `Google Chrome.app` folder as well as the `Application Support/Google` folder.

It doesn't matter what the homepage is set to when I start the application. It can be set as the recent tabs page or a web address somewhere. I have to be honest, this is bugging me a little. Does anyone have any thoughts? Can you check this on your system and see if it does the same?
