Hey All,

Was doing a bit of research on the web regarding "Generic
Host Process for Win32 Services", as it is constantly
attempting to access the web per my firewall. Could not
find anything solid regarding this service. Can anyone
tell me what this is, and if there's any type of
vulnerability to let this process through the firewall? TIA
