I can't help you with McAfee, contact their support forums.

As for outbound vs anything else... pythonw.exe needs to accept connections
at least on the local machine. No idea how to get McAfee to allow that.
Outbound may not be sufficient, you may need just Allow.

I decided to go with outbound. Now when I run the program, I get a long 
of messabge about deprecations and  NumpyTest will be removed in the 
next release. please update code to nose or unittest.

A resource for this is . There a

adgprogramming: first, bring up your task manager and make sure there
are no python processes running. 2.6.x subprocesses can get stuck.
Then make sure that your firewall isn't blocking socket access to
localhost. Then restart IDLE. IDLE 3.1.1 may work for you since it
has the recent enhancement that allows multiple copies of IDLE to run
simultaneously, but it still needs interprocess access via sockets.

How would I know the which Python processes or subprocesses are running?
I can kill the main one, but that seems to do no good.
pythonw.exe.

Comments?

several choices: Allow Access, Allow Outboubnd only

Block (current), Remove Prgrm permission, Learn More.

Outbound only seem reasonable, but why does the blocking keep returning 
every many hours, or maybe when I reboot, which I've done several times 
today?
