I ran the HP Software update a few days ago to see if there were any updates. They were 2, but deferred from installing them.
My problem:
Today when I went into NIS 2008 and looked in “View History”, I saw that “hpwucli.exe” was listed as behaving suspiciously and the recommended action was: No action required.
Below is what showed up when I clicked more detail:
“ALERT SUMMARY:
Level: Low
Title: hpwucli.exe behaved suspiciously.
Status: Detected
Recommended Action: (blank)
Advanced details.
Program: c:\programfiles\hp\hp software update\hpwucli.exe
Risk Level: Low
Affected Area: Suspicious behavior
Activity: Direct memory access
Resource: \device\physical memory
hpwucli.exe accessed the protected resources listed above. You may remove this
program.”
Also, in the Norton Internet Security Option, under Personal Firewall-Program Control, hpwucli.exe is listed with access as auto.
Do I have a problem? Do I need to have my computer looked at to see what the problem is, if any?
