Notice on Network Permissions

When launching SiteMapper for the first time, Windows Defender or Windows Firewall may request permission to allow network communication:

"Allow SiteMapper to communicate on private and public networks"

This is standard Windows behavior for desktop web crawlers that initiate outbound HTTP/HTTPS connections to inspect remote web servers. It is completely safe to select "Allow access" to enable crawling.

• Only crawl domains you own or have explicit authorization to index.
• Configure polite request delays when crawling low-bandwidth or shared hosting environments.
