ZA informed me this morning that the LSA Shell (Export Version) was 
trying to access the Internet [or maybe it was trying to act as a 
server... I don't remember any more].  I got worried that I'd somehow 
gotten infected with some virus or another but two different scans report 
me as clean [trend micro and panda].

I found the program

 Directory of C:\WINDOWS\ServicePackFiles\i386

08/04/2004  12:56 AM            13,312 lsass.exe
               1 File(s)         13,312 bytes

 Directory of C:\WINDOWS\system32

08/04/2004  12:56 AM            13,312 lsass.exe
               1 File(s)         13,312 bytes

So it looks like it is some Microsoft thing, although I tried googling 
for it and mostly got confusing (mostly-non) information about it.  What 
is it?  Why, after being installed eight months ago, would it *today* do 
something that would attract ZA's attention?  Should I ignore it, give it 
internet access, remove it [I assume, since it is an MS thing and it is 
running as SERVICE that it is some 'service' I could disable, yes?]
