Firestarter showing different connections


Firestarter showing different connections
I am having problems with firefox. When i set the default page to load it goes to Yahoo.com which is where it is supposed to go.

But when you look at firestarter bottom where it says source / destination it shows the following :

71.205.117.xx (changed then xx) and destination of 209.85.225.138 port 80

Just before this happened my cable modem went off completely except for power light for about 8 minutes.

I also did a netstat -a and this is at the top:

Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State
tcp 0 0 localhost:ipp *:* LISTEN
tcp 0 0 c-71-205-117-87.h:58177 iw-in-f101.1e100.ne:www ESTABLISHED
tcp 0 0 c-71-205-117-87.h:47047 iy-in-f101.1e100.ne:www ESTABLISHED
tcp6 0 0 localhost:ipp [::]:* LISTEN
udp 0 0 *:47802 *:*
udp 0 0 *:bootpc *:*
udp 0 0 *:mdns *:*

I did a google search for iw-in-f101.1e100.ne and it came back as windows update.

The yahoo web page is displayed and 209.85.225.138 is the destination address which is google.

This all happened after the comcast tech was in my apartment building.

Comcast support said they did have a tech in my building today , but i saw him come and go. They also said that Ubuntu has a very bad virus and i should get macafee or nortons and do a scan !!

Anyone have any ideas why firestarter shows connection to google when yahoo is being disp[ayed ?
