 Replying to [comment:5 mikeperry]:
 > Do you also see any fetches for http://add.my.yahoo.com/rss?url= or
 http://fusion.google.com/add?feedurl=?
 No. I have only seen fetches for "/favicon.ico" but not for "/rss?url=" or
 "/add?feedurl=".
 > Also, if you remove these urls from browser.contentHandlers.types.0.uri
 and browser.contentHandlers.types.1.uri do the favicon requests stop?
 I removed these URLs now. But as described above, it is difficult to test
 because these connections only occur occasionally on start-up.
 Nevertheless I will focus the network map to check it.
