By the way, for the benefit of those new users who might see this thread, I'll clarify that Poser does not need internet (WAN) access, just local (LAN) access so that two programs can talk to each other within the confines of your computer.  This is because Poser and it's external library are two separate programs.  You can choose to use the embedded library if you like, and then even local access wouldn't be needed.

     If you want to network render (using Poser's Queue Manager), then you need local access so that all the computers on your home network can talk to each other.
