(Sorry for my smug comment on the window, was showing friends)
Can anyone explain to me why the hell Windows would want to basicly, block its self?
Fake.

Seen this before, odd.
Explorer is not Windows.
If it's real, then I'm glad. I don't want Windows to bypass its own firewall just because it's explorer asking to. Viruses could use it to remotely connect to FTP, ya know.
Also explorer wouldn't really need to accept any incoming network connections does it?

It is real, it's just rare to come by as most people use Explorer for basic shell browsing/file handling within their own system.
Since when explorer needs to access internet?

FTP possibly? Not sure if it handles that.

Computer to computer interaction inside the local intranet.
As in transfering files from one computer on the network to another.
