rundll32.exe running all the time?
I always check my processes from time to time and today I noticed that rundll32.exe appears to be running non-stop, which I don't remember it doing before. It's not really using any resources, but with me being paranoid, I'm really scared :/ Checked it with process explorer, this is what it yields:
Path:
C:\Windows\System32\rundll32.exe
Command line:
C:\Windows\System32\rundll32.exe shell32.dll,SHCreateLocalServerRunDll {995C996E-D918-4a8c-A302-45719A6F4EA7} -Embedding
The parent process is svchost.exe(668) which command line is:
C:\Windows\system32\svchost.exe -k DcomLaunch
Hovering above said svchost.exe shows the DCOM Server Process Launcher, Plug and Play and Power as its services.
Checked both files, they appear to be clean.
Is this completely normal or should I be worried?
