Now, I've just preformed a virus scan of my system so I'm 100% sure that the
file version of RUNDLL32..EXE is legit and not infected with the SirCam
virus.

But seriously, I'd prohibit it. For all I know Rundll32 has no business of
its own on the Internet. Although there may be something I'm not aware of.
Something similar to MS Messenger trying to call home whenever Outlook
Express is open (not Messenger).
AFAIK Rundll is used to call operating system functions and services from
the GUI (you can use it from the Start-Run input line) or from within
programs. You could call Rundll as well if you wanted to use OS functions
(like for example the shutdown function).
It is not unusual for Windows functions to try and access the Internet
although you wouldn't think they need to. I've seen this two or three times,
have always disallowed it, and never had a problem with that.
