"unlike"? You seem to be implying that something would be wrong with not
running bull*** software.

Yes... unlike.. you stated very clearly that you advise people to not run anything at all, which is still a bad idea.

so he noticed this
One doesn't need any packet filter to do so.
Not running anything surely doesn't have anyone notice ANY access that might be unwanted. But since you prefer to have every end user system completely exposed to the Internet, contrary the advise from just about anyone in the business of providing Internet Services, I guess I'm talking to a wall here ;-)

and can investigate the potentially malicious access ;-)
There's nothing to investigate.
I don't know about Kerio, I discarded it myself since it took too much cpu for nothing, but I doubt a piece of software makes up random access warnings, especally if they intend to remain in business for a while.

BTW: I don't think the IANA is running hosts for Akamai
