Hi,

I use zmq in one of my program and some users reported a RunTimeError when launching the software.
After investigation, I found that if I install COMODO firewall on the computer with the maximum security set, just by calling zmq.Context(), I have a crash.
Here is the trace:

>Assertion failed: Permission denied (..\..\..\src\signaler.cpp:219)
>This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
>Please contact the application's support team for more information

Is there a way to avoid this ? I'have done the test on pyzmq-2.1.10.win32-py2.7

Thanks in advance.
