| Hi all,
| Not sure if this is the right place to post...
| C:\WINDOWS\system32\wbem\wmiprvse.exe is trying to use C:\WINDOWS
| \system32\tftp.exe to send data somewhere on all my machines in an
| enterprise environment.
| We use McAfee with rules to block any TFTP use, so the action is blocked. If
| it were not, I wouldn't even know that it was trying to do this. I'm sure the
| machines do not have a virus, and not compromised in any other way. It seems
| that WMIPRVSE is trying to do this "legitimately".
| Can anyone tell me:
| 1) Why it is trying to TFTP?
| 2) How I can configure it to STOP trying to TFTP?
| Thanks!
There is a strong possibility the PC is infected.
