I have Norton Firewall and am getting warned that a program called "topsys.exe" is attempting to access the internet. Does anyone know what this program is and if it should be accessing the internet? Thanks

Using the search tool to find out what folder it is in might help you to figure out what it's for.
I googled it and I found the following website: http://www.supportnet.de/stat/2001/6/id42053.asp
If you can read German let me know what this says ok.

Yea, I already found that site & used Google to translate it, but it didn't really help. The file is in my System32 folder, but I don't know how it got there, or what it is for. Thanks
