What would you define as tangible evidence? Use of a packet
sniffer, will easily prove that it just makes a normal connection
to retreive headlines from BBC.

He did log the traffic and he included some of the http requests and
responses in the original post.
Or do you think BBC is spying on you? :P

The default live bookmark is http://fxfeeds.mozilla.org/rss20.xml. I
think he still thinks mozilla.org is spying on him. It makes pretty
good sense for them to use their own XML for the feed, so that they can
change it if need be. (They actually should change it slightly now,
since the BBC headlines it points to have moved to a different page.)

I made no claim that it was spyware. Just that I was getting two TCP
connects to IP,s witout my knowledge. Getting up there in years. My
sightes not what it use to be, so I allways removed that toolbar to get more
page to show. F11 key is broke. :) I just don't like programs connecting
behide my back, no matter how benign.

Sorry I misrepresented you -- I think I misunderstood what you said
about producing evidence that it's not spying.
