Using FreeMeter (shows web traffic in a real time graph) I noticed a stream of data being sent from my computer. I had not sent any data anywhere. I accessed my modem Web Activity Log to see who was doing what.

While trying to track down that problem, I noticed that nytimes.map.fastly.net (just for example) is sending data to my computer. I looked at my cookies and there are none present for that site. I have probably looked at the nytimes site occasionally, but not in weeks.

But in looking at the web activity I noticed numerous sites sending data that I am not requesting. I only use FireFox for browsing, but I am guilty of using Google for my email and search engine.

Where do I start to track down problems like this? What do you need from me to dig into this? Windows 7 Pro, AVAST free antivirus, Malware occasionally.

Thanks, Fred

That isn't a firefox issue but a separate issue that you should contact NYTimes support about.

And you think the NYTimes would be helpful?

It just isn't them, it is a half dozen other sites also. I just chose that one as an example. Is there a feature in Firefox that would allow me to block them? Does this need to be done back at the firewall? Do I need some other piece of software/hardware to set up blocks? If they are sending unsolicited information, are they maybe also fetching information on the sly?

I am not new at computers, but I am new at a problem like this. Is this a common occurrence?

Thanks, Fred
