Background download on ping meter

What is this thing? I hover over my ping checker and it says a background download is going. I've never seen this before in my years of playing. It's up to 220MB already...

There is a background downloader that may be updating different areas of the game. It may have helped if you could post a screenshot of this. But most likely it's nothing to worry about

you havent -image'd gw yet or in a while so it is downloading all the files you don't have.

Most likely its just downloading the files that came with the last costume patch/update. Nothing to worry about it'll go away eventually.

Huh, easy enough then. I guess I should -image it then. I don't think it got the chance to download all of the war in kryta stuff.
