I am guessing, the problem is DNS server activity.
Clear DNS on your computing device:

Clear Internet browser caches.
Quit everything and restart your computing device.

One of the answers:
TOR clients do not, in general, directly do DNS requests. When you open a connection through the tor network you usually ask your client (on its socks ports) to connect you to a hostname and port, say www.example.com:80.
Your TOR client, once it has created a circuit, will send that hostname and port to the exit node in its RELAY_BEGIN cell.
The exit node will then do a DNS resolve and open a TCP connection to the target. Once that’s established it will tell your client that the connection is open, and for informational purposes will also tell your client what address that hostname resolved to.
TOR, in addition to that, has some sort of “remote DNS resolve” protocol built in. This support allows clients to query for certain resource types, like IPv4 or IPv6 addresses. Here too, the exit node does the actual DNS packet sending and receiving and just relays the answer to the client.
No UDP packets are actually ever routed from the client.
I wasn't able to uninstall. For some odd reason, neither my Windows 7 Control Panel, nor CCleaner list TOR among the programs that can be uninstalled.
However, I reinstalled without uninstalling, and that fixed it.
