Wild turkey guess off the top of my head: Some "web bugs" as Jacque put it do not like being blocked and try to re-establish themselves, and they are what is leaking.

With Ghostery, I seem to have a slow leakage which accelates at some point. It might not be Ghostery itself, of course, but some combination of programs but Ghostery is definitely involved.
