[Mono-list] gtkhtml, gconfd-2 & XP Firewall

I've been running into an issue with, the XP Firewall throwing up errors
blocking gconfd-2 from "accepting connections to the internet"  This is
in an app that I have a gtkhtml-sharp widget that displays html help
files I have stuffed into the resources of the *.exe (via Monodevelop).
 I am assuming that it is all a gtkhtml-sharp issue.

The code I use to load the helpView (the gtkhtml widget) is:

Assembly asm = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly();
StreamReader reader = new
StreamReader(asm.GetManifestResourceStream("help.html"));
helpView.LoadFromString ( reader.ReadToEnd() );
helpView.LinkClicked += new LinkClickedHandler(OnLinkClicked);

Specific questions are:
1. Is there a way for me to not have the widget attempt to connect to
the internet?  The firewall blocks and the app waits and the firewall
block, etc....
2. The linkClicked handler catches the links but does not scroll the
widget, is this something I have to do myself?


Thanks,

Rodney
