I typically bring up ZoneAlarm to shut down all Internet connectivity while 
I'm away from my keyboard (AFK).  This is the perfect time to run SETI, but 
for some reason, BOINC just crashes whenever I bring up the firewall.  Why 
would BOINC need access to the internet/LAN to just process SETI files, 
especially when the
"Disable BOINC Network Access" option is selected?

This was discussed a while back on the Boinc boards but was okayed as
it was just a housekeeping chore it is doing. Just let Boinc thru and
all will be fine. If you REALLY want to stop the net just unplug the
wire, Boinc may run that way, it may just error out.
