Yeah that is due to NOD32 or some other security software.

This is from the netfoss documentation:


 Compatibility Issues
 --------------------

 Some "security" software (anti-virus and firewalls) will interfere with
 a socket being passed from a Telnet Server to another process such as
 NetFoss. This process is known as Socket inheritance.

 NOD32 anti-virus must be configured to allow the Telnet Server to do this,
 by doing the following:

 1. Click on IMON from the NOD32 control center.
 2. Click on Setup, and then click the "Miscellaneous" tab.
 3. Under the Exclusion section, click the "Edit" button and add the
    path/name of your telnet server .exe file.



If this doesn't work for you then the only thing I can tell you is that NOD32
is probably going to continue to block it.
