I opened up a live webcam (Ware Hertford Traffic) in Firefox. I have closed the tab, but Netmeter show that it is still down loading. As a test Closing Firefox stops the Down load, but how do I keep Firefox open and stop the download?

I've seen this on other webcams - it used to happen on the Plusnet ones - but I've no idea of a fix.

I tried the link and it 'appeared to continue downloading' even after shutting down FF...Hmmmm.

I've seen it continue for 5-10 seconds after closing FF, but it does then stop.
