Same here. Soon after launching a cloud hosted virtual machine I noticed that it was getting a lot of unexpected HTTP traffic on port 80. They were GET requests with parameters that suggested to me that it was coming from some kind of Javascript browser tracker. I rebooted the VM to get a new IP address and the traffic stopped. It's somebody else's problem now.
