I have Norton 360 running. I have also used HijackThis to check for any spy/ad or malware. I reformatted my hard drive in July and its been there every since. The service is not showing in my start up items. It typically starts itself about 30-45 seconds after booting up. I'm sure its not hurting anything (except sucking 1,300 K of RAM). I just want to know why it seems to have a mind of its own!
