Our Firewall is asking me if I would like to allow services.exe to launch my web browser. Are there any cases where this would be considered normal? I would think that services.exe would only launch or control the services that are found in the services control panel. Could this be a virus?
Process Explorer (from sysinternals) says that on my system the browser is started by explorer.exe What is the name of your Internet browser? Maybe others have comments, too Thomas
