Maybe an easy question

[Atext]

Does any one else’s data connection icon stay active at all times? When ever I go to the comm. Manager and I turn off the data connections button the data connection Icon goes away and then I go to the internet explorer and use it it comes back and then when I close the internet explorer after use, the data connection icon in the start menu is still active after all programs are closed out. So basically at all times unless I am using my phone my data connection Icon in the start menu is active. If this is common, does anyone know what data is being transmitted.

Thank you
