I was hoping someone could help me to understand what might be 
happening to trigger the access attempts I am blocking with my policy 
which are listed below.  They only seem to appear when I am logged in 
to the "Blackboard" program at the university I attend.  I have 
already taken several steps to limit what my browser can do, and I do 
not understand how it can trigger such attempts.

I just noticed that I sent the wrong part of the log.   I accidentally 
removed this from the previous post instead of the repeated messages:

My concern is that somehow the browser seems to be able to entice other 
running processes, such as "X" and "kjournald" to attempt Internet access.
    

No, the avc message is just misleading.  The pid/comm information for
network layer permission checks is unreliable because the packet
send/recv isn't necessarily happening in the context of the process that
initiated the send or that will handle the recv.  Note in particular the
use of kernel_t in the scontext; that is a kernel socket, e.g. ICMP
traffic.

  
Thanks for the information.
