Thanks for the tip on my replies Karellen! Much appreciated.
No, I do not have that particular add-on, or any third party add-on for that matter. Everything installed is right out of the box from Kodi install. I only posted that particular thread because I was doing a little reconn work and chomped at the bit when I found something Kodi related. There's not much out there about it, which is why I was seeking help. As I mentioned before, and sorry to repeat, but I'm getting the connection attempt after a fresh install on a fresh box while loading Kodi for first use. Before anything is set up. No additional add-ons or contents. Almost as if it's being initialized when Kodi is run for the first time. I don't see it a 2nd time. I will work on the logs for you, but not sure how I can capture the event when it happens before I can activate the debug option. The nightly build was the only build that didn't fire it off on initial load
Now the nightly build flagged it when i changed the skin to one I found in the Kodi repository. I forget which one. I performed it on a freshly reformatted windows 7 pro box.
Your feedback is greatly appreciated, and I appreciate your patience..

Looks like a simple uninstall of Kodi doesn't do the trick of resetting what ever triggers the event. There must be some registry entries left that effect it. I'm trying to repeat, but not getting anywhere. Plus this nightly build is crashing all over the place. Give me about 30 minutes and I'll have a fresh OS install and Kodi to play with.

We have just had some feed back from the Mirrors maintainer.
That address is one of our mirrors, and is most likely trying to perform a Repository Update. You will need to ensure your repository is upto date for a properly functioning Kodi. As an example, we have had quite an upheaval with Scrapers recently due to problems at the Scraper sites, so you need to ensure they are up to date or you will find that nothing will be added to the library.
You should allow that connection to go through. Kodi will always try to connect to the online repository on first install to download the latest version of required add-ons.
Hope that helps.

That sure does help! But tell me something if you can. Why now is it getting flagged and not before? Is this a newer mirror site? I never saw this behavior before, and I've been using this same security software all along? Or maybe its something Malwarebytes specific?
