Every day or so I get a message popping up from my firewall (McAfee Firewall
to the effect that a certain file is seeking access to the internet and the
firewall wants to know if I want to allow or block it. Of course, I have no
idea what these are and no idea which program such files relate to. These
files always seem to show up in the c:\Windows\System32 folder. Tonight is
was cjbljywt.exe. I block anything I don't recognize, which is pretty much
everything flagged, unless the warning appears when I am trying to access
some internet site. I presume my doing so is okay since I haven't seen any
significant problems.
Oddly, as I opened Outlook Express to access various Microsoft-related
bulletin boards my Firewall flagged the file wscript.exe, which was
described as "Microsoft (r) Windows Based Script Host" I blocked that, too,
and then noticed that I could not see any messages. Is there any way to
look these unknown programs up to see if they are related to any legitimate
programs?
