I have recently installed a personal firewall, after being continiuosly pestered by the TROJ_ISTBAR.K virus, and my firewall keeps telling me that a "Generic Host for Win32 Services" is tring to enter. I have, so far, denied entry because I don't know what this is. Is this a virus trying to implant a server in my computer, or is this a legitimate entry? Does anyone have a "I know this to be an absolute fact" answer?
Thank You
