[pchelpers] Re: lsass.exe

Here is some information on this file:
"lsass.exe" is the Local Security Authentication Server. It verifies the 
validity of user logons to your PC/Server. It generates the process 
responsible for authenticating users for the Winlogon service. This 
process is performed by using authentication packages such as the 
default Msgina.dll. If authentication is successful, Lsass generates the 
user's access token, which is used to launch the initial shell. Other 
processes that the user initiates inherit this token. More info

Note: The lsass.exe file is located in the c:\windows\System32 folder. 
In other cases, lsass.exe is a virus, spyware, trojan or worm! Check 
this with Security Task Manager.
