Using Sygate Personal Firewall v5.5 build 2710, I am getting all kinds of activity. It started with this (LEXBCES.EXE) I believe. Also getting other popup invaders (Win32 Kernel for one) that show and disappear very quickly. Everything was going well until I uninstalled Sygate 5.6 build 2808 and reverted to 5.5.

Sorry if the previous post is poorly framed. I guess the question I am trying to have answered is: "Distributed Com Services". Should this be allowed permission to enter? And I didn't understand the warning "Application Hijacking has been detected". Thanks,
