Public bug reported:

With firefox-3 new safebrowsing is enabled by default. 
See: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.safebrowsing.enabled

This option need some remote server to check the web page if it's ok:
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.safebrowsing.remoteLookups
by default it's google

see: about:config

I think user should be warned before he will be "protected" on cost of his 
privacy. Something like thirst start message "Warning you will be 
"protected"!!!"
And I do not think it is a nice idea to report every page i'm wisiting to 
google.

** Affects: firefox-3.0 (Ubuntu)
