I'm not trying to block this software. That's one of the reasons I didn't name the software here. This software is legitimate and I would have allowed it internet access if my firewall asked for it. Or why should I willingly click on "check for updates" if I didn't want it to access the internet?
I'm trying to block any other (possible malicious) software from using the same approach to access the internet, since obviously my firewall would allow any other traffic using this method without asking me.
@The Old Pirate:
I checked the Thread-ID, unless something was showing up wrong only ProfSvc had an active connection to the IP address.
