Phoning Home
I used the following to block a program from phoning home " sudo ipfw add deny log ip from 64.225.100.153 to any " I now need to take this "block" off, in effect returning the settings to their prior state before I typed the " sudo ipfw add deny log ip from 64.225.100.153 to any " into TERMINAL. I have no idea on how to do this. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

The ipfw utility is so great. I've just started realizing one quarter of it's potential, and so now I've completely given up on Apple's Pref Pane. For example, I want to be able to access my music through SMB sharing on my campus network so I can listen to it in the labs, but I don't want those crazy RIAA kooks finding my computer sharing ten thousand songs, so I can enter in the subdomain of my campus network, and it will only allow oncampus computers access. And I really only SSH from two other computers, so I can allow access to only those two IPs.
For quite an extensive runthrough, type man ipfw.
You ought to be running it, at least as configured through the PrefPane.... it's not too hard to do, and it really doesn't interfere with stuff you want if it's set up correctly.
