I've been getting this all day......
Application NT Kernal & System has been blocked,
file name is ntoskrnl.exe
Anyone know what that is? I don't have it blocked in applications.
And I did a Whois on it and got this..........

Oh, I see. So as long as it's being blocked I'm ok right? It's just annoying is all, like every ten minutes.
edit: I've been using Sygate for a while now and know it pretty well, and I have never gotten this warning until today, all day.

yes, u r safe as long as you block it but NTOSKRNL.EXE is windows NT kernel. this is a low level communication tool that allows Windows to function. disabling this may prevent Internet access and file print share. if u c ne negative effects then u mite have to unblock it

Well my net access is fine, I've been on all day with no problem. And I'm not sharing anything on any network so I guess I'm fine huh?
