[pchelpers] Re: LSA wants to accept connections from internet

Interesting. I take it you don't want to share any files or resources 
from your system with anything on the internet?

If that is true, then Zonealarm may have blocked a virus or a bot trying 
to make contact with another system. It may be wise to get it thoroughly 
scanned for nasties.
