Why is Stardock Central being contacted by remote machine xsltcache.alexa.com (209.237.287.103)? This has never happened before. I blocked the attempt with my firewall. Is this a spyware attempt? Anyone else have this happen?

No problem here, Stardock does not distribute spyware with its proggies. You most likely have picked up spyware on another site somewhere. Try to download Spybot http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.html and run it on your system. I am pretty sure it finds stuff.

Good luck
