so the Top Sites that you can add to your homepage, i notice everytime i start up firefox the icons change or get loaded. I want to know is firefox accessing these websites in the background to get the sites icon. I have websites added to it and use both work and personal on my homepage, i was wondering is my work proxy going to pick up these websites (not work related) even though i haven't accessed it.

I don't think so. Those icons are lazy-loaded from the thumbnail cache. That's why they change during the startup.
