For an easy way to block sites based on domain name just add them to |
13 |
/etc/hosts and map them to 127.0.0.1. |

It depends on what it is, mostlikely something you want. It may be firefox |
18 |
downloading the database of blacklisted sites for the "Block reported attack |
19 |
sites" and "Block reported web forgeries" features so those thing will not |
20 |
work properly. It could also be an ad block or some other plugin downloading |
21 |
the ads database. It could be downloading or verifying SSL certificates. It |
22 |
could be the Bookmark sync feature, etc, etc. |
