Mmmm... since I have an internet router on which I can't get anything near logs for incoming traffic, I'm stuck for the icmp traffic coming from mozilla.com... what about the dns (UDP 53) traffic ? All in all, is it all really related to you using iceweasel, and not just someone/something pinging your IP from mozilla.com network instead ?
