spoolsv.exe and McAfee Firewall




Hi Networkers,

A quick scan of posts indicates this isn't a hot topic.

I'm running Windows 2000 SP4 and McAfee firewall.

When I boot, my firewall flags spoolsv.exe

"A program is trying to connect to the Internet"
Name: Spooler Subsystem App
Path: C:\WINNT\system32\spoolsv.exe
Installed: Monday, July 11, 2005

Is this normal?
Should I worry about it?
Any comments?

TIA,

Rob
