Dana,

This is my dev machine at home, not production. I'm not sure what
add-on it was, but it was trying really, really, really hard to
connect somewhere. As I was removing a number of add-ons at the time,
I'm not sure which was the problem.

It's interesting to watch exactly what a browser connects to when its on.
