When user opens up Lotus Notes and type the password, user always gets following up pop-up message.   "Allow internet access by eclipse...."  Have you guys seen this message in MAC platform?  Is there way to suppress this message?

Hello Wongo!

Where is this message is presented?
Like a pop-up? On status bar?

Could you provide a screen shot?

Best Regards!

Yes. Adjust your Firewall settings
The dialog can be safely ignored, but I agree that it is annoying.  It is triggered by a port opening temporarily way down in the Java layer of IBM Notes.  Accepting incoming connections is neither used nor required.  To disable the dialog do the following:
  1. Go to System Preferences -> Security & Privacy -> Firewall -> Firewall Options..
  2. Next to IBM Notes (or Lotus Notes) select "Block incoming connections"
  3. Do the same for "eclipse" if present.  

Please let me know if this works for you.
