On OSX is does not show an alert for "localhost:8080" ever, but on windows
it does.
On Windows after running the server (.exe) 2 times it learns the rule, and
stops showing the alert anymore.
I then went into the firewalls rules, saw the rule for the exe, and deleted
the rule, to confirm the causation.
I then ran the server (.exe), it did not show the alert.
Whats ? then its not the firewall rules !!! ??? ####%(DHDGR§$%ff###
I saw this before a few months ago, and could never work out what was going
on with Windows.
Would be curious to know what others think. Maybe there is still a way to
make it never show the alert on Windows....
thanks....
