The others don't go to web pages.
Run a mal-ware scan on your system. Also, go to Mozilla Add-ons Web Page and get a good pop-up blocker. Let us know how things turn out.

Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.

You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:

Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.

Akamai Technologies is a very large content delivery network. It's estimated that their servers handle up to 20% of all web traffic. Therefore it's highly likely and perfectly natural that you will come across at least one connection to their servers during a browsing session.

If you're seeing connections while the browser is idle, see the following article for possible explanations.
