Kernel32?

Why does "Win32 Kernel core component" keep wanting to connect to the net? Since I installed a firewall it comes up quite frequently. Anybody know why? Thanks in advance!

It sounds like you may have a virus. Update your virus definitions and do a scan of your pc. There are a number of viruses that replace the kernel32.dll with a fake.

Karlis;

My anti-virus is regularly updated. I'm just wondering where Kernel32 wants to go...

I'm guessing that before I installed the firewall it went unchecked, so...
