Title:
  Firewall alert due to incorrect plugin selection in windows installer

Status in OpenLP - Worship Presentation Software:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Version 1.9.4 of OpenLP presents an unacceptable security risk in that
  for no apparent reason it attempts network access.

  On opening OpenLP v 1.9.4 a number of firewall alerts are issued
  indicating that this software is attempting to access both the local
  network and any attached network including the internet.

  This is an obvious and blatant security risk and should be removed
  forthwith.l
