Whenever I have installed a new version of Transmission, OSX prompts me for firewall permissions when I start up the app for the first time. Each time, I "allow" T to accept connections, and ALSO manually add this setting into the OSX firewall preferences. From then on, I am never prompted again. When I installed T 1.50b2, I was prompted TWICE, I allowed both, and also added this to my firewall settings. However, on subsequent starts of T 1.50b2, OSX still prompts me, TWICE, even though the setting is still in the firewall prefs.
Any ideas why firewall is acting odd?
OSX 10.5.6 won't remember firewall settings for T 1.50b2

Ok, it finally started without asking me to pick firewall settings, I got really excited, then the next time it asked me again...
Anyone?
Anyone?

Yes, from time to time the Leopard firewall re-asks permission for Transmission. The binary has definetly not changed (no update) and the account I use does not even have write permissions on it. The alert is also in discrepancy with the firewall prefPane, which displays Transmission as allowed.

OSX remembered the next version, but I'm on the 1.50 release now, and it's forgetting between uses again. I swear I do it the same each time...
