I have Sygate firewall and i think after the latest Microsoft updates, ntoskrnl wants to acces the internet. I checked the target IP, and it seems to belong my Internet Service Provider. Why ntoskrnl want to acces my ISP? I have blocked, and even made an advanced rule to Sygate to block traffic from ntoskrl, but still Sygate comes with this confirmation pop up window, if i want ntoskrnl to acces the web. This happens once every day, well at least every time after i have rebooted my computer.
