Had some problems with my firewall today and yesterday .. and the day before. Its been running really really heavy, and thats not at all normal. I saw some odd behavior. It started on the 18th, and peaked on the 20th. In the end, I found that at least one of the two configured Comcast DNS servers had changed. So I changed from using

nameserver 68.87.64.146
nameserver 68.87.75.194

to using :

nameserver 68.87.64.150
nameserver 68.87.75.198
nameserver 68.87.29.164
nameserver 68.87.85.132
nameserver 68.87.76.228
nameserver 68.87.72.244
nameserver 68.87.68.244

After doing that, its recovered and working much better.
