[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 1315549, member: 110816"] Little Snitch is all about outbound access only..so if an unknown application is making requests to addresses that just don't make sense, then yes you should deny it. But remember that most of the time you won't get a nice clear name (and icon) like in the sample image I posted..most of the times, you will get names like "aplpushserviced" or something..you can kinda guess that APL here is Apple, but you'll get a lot of other funky names that you want to allow access.. To prevent access from external people you should be using a hardware firewall in your router and other prevention schemes.. [/QUOTE]
