Sorry about the lack of information from me, but yes, I am running Windows
XP Professional. The reason this seemed strange in the first place is
because i knew that I didnt have IIS 6 on XP, so this log file of activity
seemed odd-the SNMP stood out to me because of the remote access
possibilites.

I looked at the security tab under the advanced tab to find the owner of the
and it is currently owned by the Administrators group. Below this it asks
if I would like to change it.... it gives two choices
Administrator group
Administrators group

is that any help?
