Yeah little snitch is great for all of my hypothetical adobe situations. You just have to make sure that you specify the rules or it could get annoying. I also have comcast internet and it’s amazing how much data mining they attempt, but the snitch won’t let ‘em. Little Snitch is definitely worth the $20.

After Little Snitch alerts you, you can choose to allow/deny the connection; either for that one session or indefinitely. You’ll be amazed at how many times native OS X apps try to connect back to Apple. I allow most of the connections to run w/o notifying me.

Sorry for being a little ambiguous.

I guess I am confused…

If you only need Little Snitch to notify you of illegally downloaded software connecting back, why do you need it again?

Thanks for clarifying.
