DavidR noted above the "problems" people encountered when changing from the default ALLOW to ASK.
I tested things myself... while not having an actual "problem", I was indeed subject to several prompts for permissions:
I receieved two BeS warnings (when set to ASK) about my Wireless Connector:
C:\Program Files\Intel\Wireless\Bin\WLKEEPER.exe
C:\Program Files\Intel\Wireless\Bin\S24EvMon.exe
One about my firewall:
C:\Program Files\Comodo\Firewall\cmdagent.exe
and one more about my clock-synchronization:
C:\Program Files\D4\D4.exe
At that point, I switched back to the default of ALLOW... and will be leaving it that way.
