Right, never found a fix.  I did however find that ZoneAlarm treats
localhost and 127.0.0.1 differently, atleast in handling privacy
settings.  I was going to dig thru the code to see if in my case
localhost or 127.0.0.1 was being use in popen, but haven't had the
time so far.

Same scenario, same result, same need...
