! IDLE
! ----
! - IDLE displays a new message upon startup: some "personal firewall"
! kinds of programs (for example, ZoneAlarm) open a dialog of their
! own when any program opens a socket. IDLE does use sockets, talking
! on the computer's internal loopback interface. This connection is not
! visible on any external interface and no data is sent to or received
! from the Internet. So, if you get such a dialog when opening IDLE,
! asking whether to let pythonw.exe talk to address 127.0.0.1, say yes,
! and rest assured no communication external to your machine is taking
! place. If you don't allow it, IDLE won't be able to start.
