8 ACCESS,22:01:52,RuLaunch blocked from connecting to Internet (216.49.88.100:HTTP)As far as the program being blocked, a google search for "RuLaunch" shows that it is Macafee, your antivirus software. It's probably checking for updates/registration.
indeed, the IP belongs to mcafee: cow.ripe.net:mally:~ $ whois -h whois.arin.net 216.49.88.100 OrgName: Mcafee.Com OrgID: MCAFEE-13 NetRange: 216.49.80.0 - 216.49.95.255 CIDR: 216.49.80.0/20 NetName: MCAF-BLK1 NetHandle: NET-216-49-80-0-1 Parent: NET-216-0-0-0-0 NetType: Direct Assignment NameServer: AUTHNSB.MCAFEE.COM NameServer: AUTHNSC.MCAFEE.COM If only companies would make it resolve too....
