Send or receive? If you have Automatic Program component updates turned on, it may be wanting to download an update to its engine, which you should allow. If it is sending out, it might have detected a suspicious dll or something in Windows, and wants to send a report back to Eset. If it was me, I would do an "In-depth analysis" scan (click on NOD32 in the left pane of the control center, then several scan options appear in the right pane).
You can trust NOD32 to do the right thing, so I would tell your firewall that it is OK. It's not rated the #1 antivirus program for no reason. The only thing I dislike about it, is that you have to configure each module separately (AMON, DMON, IMON, EMON, NOD32), and Eset has not grouped the common options in one place. I know this gives you fine control, but even their own setup guide recommends the same common settings for each module.
