i have a new imac desktop with Sierra 10.12.6 i have firefox 55.0.2 (64bit)

when i exit firefox, Norton Internet Security tells me that firefox is attempting to connect to one of several compute.amazonnaws.com sites. This has never occurred before and is not happening on my old imac desktop running ElCapitan.

It does not occur with Safari on either computer.

If i block the one amazonnaws site another comes up the next time i exit firefox.

Is this normal? How to i keep this from happening?

I am writing this from my old computer.

Thanks

Firefox is connecting to compute.amazonaws.com for sync services but many sites use it so I can't definitely say for sure you are seeing the same connection as I did.
