SQLite is a technology used by Firefox to store settings (e.g., bookmarks, history, cookies). However, I don't know why it would be communicating with the internet. Does that show up in your firewall??

Also, although possibly not related to your problem, I have to remind you that the version of Firefox you are using at the moment has been discontinued and is no longer supported. On top of this, it has known unpatched bugs and security problems. I urge you to update to the latest version of Firefox, for maximum security, stability, performance and usability. You can get it for free, as always, at getfirefox.com.

It's a data management system used by FF, TB, Adobe, and many other programs on you system.

DO NOT delete or modify unless you know the sqlite coding format.

See [http://www.sqlite.org/] for more information.
