This very odd behavior started right after updating to 2.14. It only occurs in one account, so it may have nothing to do with the update.

When I open my browser, I get a prompt to allow the setting of a cookie from my homepage (a yahoo site), and then I get a prompt to allow a cookie to be set from an IP address (no domain name). After looking it up, I was surprised to find that it is the Comcast WAN IP from my own router. What software could this be that is setting a cookie from my own IP address when I connect? I found the same cookie in firefox, which was set to private browsing. When I changed firefox to "ask me every time" for cookie permissions, I did not get a prompt to allow setting of the cookie when I open firefox, so I can't seem to duplicate this in firefox. I get this prompt every time I open seamonkey unless I permanently create a rule. This has never happened before, so it seems very odd. It is also odd that it doesn't happen in my other seamonkey profiles.

Has anyone else seen this happen? There is nothing in the cookie, and it doesn't seem to change when I surf, so I'm not sure what it is doing. New things that happen out of the blue always capture my attention.
