Bottom left Corner very heavy [sketchy] traffic Added Status-4-Eva saw it was java scripts causing issue 

           Unusual Traffic Includes:

->Sites Ive never been too ->google when not on google ->Sometimes with input from keyboard mouse

Firefox--> Safe Mode --> Remove extensions Appearance --> Default Theme

Above did not help.

Why is google always throwing java scripts at me? I understand that you have to go through the protocol layers To access the data that makes up the webpage im viewing and that corner is a snapshot of that process....

however the amount of traffic im experiencing seems unsafe from a privacy stand point.

In a lot of cases scripts and css files and fonts and images can be retrieved from other web servers. Google for instance stores remote fonts and possibly some common JavaScript files.
