title: Java Interprocess Communication
body: <p>I have a situation where i need to send commands to a running java application, now i am using tcp/ip socket to send commands to the application using a internet explorer context menu item. But as soon as the application starts virus scanners complain that the application started listening, although i am only listening for local connections. I think this may be confusing to the users. I am looking at others ways of communicating without pissing off av scanners?</p>
