When I opened the thread this morning (hours ago), my system was quiet.
When, several minutes ago, I did the netstat -atuevp whose output I
attached to my reply to you and Tim, yes, Thunderbird and Firefox were
running.
Check these packages' "Preferences->Privacy & Security" settings.
IIRC, Fedora's Mozilla packages have Mozilla's espionage (IMHO: mis-)

therefore are phoning home under "the hood".
