Hi,
I have just installed Norton Antivirus 2002 Corporate and I keep gettin a pop up on my zone alarm (most current) about granting server rights for MSGSYS.exe. Does anyone know what this does? I did a google search for it and couldnt find anything.

I found this on Google:
"MsgSys.exe - This program opened port 38037 when the Norton Antivirus
Client was started as a service. In checking the properties of this
file, it was actually created by Intel. A thorough search of Intel’s
web page regarding this file revealed nothing. A search of the disk
drive showed that this file was indeed installed during the
installation of Norton Antivirus software."
Cal: It looks like Norton is just asking about geeting past your firewall, thats all.

Thanks Cal,

After furthur review I found that it had something to do with Intels Landesk. Just something they have to make managing a network easier from a Desktop.
