Not sure where to put this as it may be browser or router related.
I have noticed lately that I regularly get a cookie prompt "sb-ssl.google.com" in my Firefox browser, usually when I am simply in my router (techni"color" TG582n) web interface. Naturally I am puzzled as to why a google cookie is being offered to me when I'm doing that, not to mention at all. Any ideas?

sb-ssl.google.com appears to be related to google safebrowsing. Firefox downloads updates to the list of malware and phishing sites from Google, Firefox tends to only do it when idle.

RPM, no, not in the installation of FF that I get these prompts.
ejs, thanks. I guess it is that, then. Don't know why they want to set a cookie for it. As to the idle bit, though, I'm not idle. As I say, it's usually when I'm in the router interface, and typically when I have logged in and start 'browsing' it. Sometimes the cookie prompt does pop up when I'm in it but idling, however.
