MrDeathLNX Posted August 11, 2004 Share Posted August 11, 2004 Hey, im using Zone Alarm 5.1, and for some reason, when Windows XP (Professional) boots, evidently svchost.exe is asking for server rights. I know about some of this program's uses, but was unaware of why it would need to act as a server. Everytime I deny it the ability, nothing acts wierd, so I wondered if anyone else could enlighten me upon my situation... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeartsOfWar Posted August 11, 2004 Share Posted August 11, 2004 Actually, no... I don't think svchost needs those rights. There was a virus that replaced svchost and the new svchost acted as a central hub over the network to spread the virus.Maybe check your computer...
