Just found out my router logs outgoing traffic.
Flicked through it and found this after a night of web browsing:

192.168.1.101 72.246.51.80 HTTP
192.168.1.101 72.246.51.57 HTTP
192.168.1.101 72.246.51.114 HTTP
192.168.1.101 72.246.51.82 HTTP
192.168.1.101 72.246.51.83 HTTP
192.168.1.101 72.246.51.81 HTTP
192.168.1.101 72.246.51.73 HTTP
192.168.1.101 69.16.225.146 HTTP

What are all those IPs it says im trying to connect to?
Where do they come from?
 
doing a whoIS on the domain comes up with the following.

72.246.0.0 - 72.247.255.255
