My Mac blocks downloads of programs such as MS Office. Can I change a setting to allow this?

I use MS Office, which automatically sends weekly updates. However, whenever I try to download these my Mac seems to block it. This also happens with other programs. I think I have a setting that makes the security, but I'm not.

Any help would be very welcome.

Thank you

Ian.

You are probably referring to this: OS x: about the application firewall - Apple Support

There are also 3rd party software which can block connections, such as Little Snitch or Handsoff. You have something like that?
