OK, I was split on whether to post this in the OSX section, but I have only got iphoto 08 asking the question...

Do I want the application iphoto.app to accept incoming network connections? Deny or Always Allow...

This is new in 10.5. I don't have web galleries or anything. And if I click Deny, it pops up the next time I open it...Kind of reminding me of the old Windows days...

I've been having the exact same problem. The same with iTunes. I've posted in the official Apple support forums, but haven't received any answer. I've messed with the firewall settings and still get the pop up. I think the problem started after I messed with the Guest account.

Bonjour. Don't understand why the dialog wouldn't tell you that though...

No hint that Bonjour was causing this...Oh well. I will try to turn it off...
