You’ll see a list of “logon connections.” If there’s one that looks like it might be causing the warning message, you can disable it by adding “localhost” at the end of its name. For example, if the connection in the list was called “My Computer,” you would add “localhost:8080.”

I realize there are some irritating legal reasons for having this message, but it really gets old after a while.
