wininit.exe - Safe to allow connection or not?
Hello.
I've always been using Windows built-in firewall for years but decided to try one that's reasonable. I tried Comodo Firewall and everything seems to work fine.
But these past 2-3 days, i've been getting alerts about wininit.exe trying to receive a connection or something to that extend. - C:\Windows\System32\wininit.exe -
I'm really clueless with stuff like these so i did a couple google search and there's mixed opinions from users. I just need some confirmation from the professionals here.
I did a search for the IPs that is trying to send a connection to wininit.exe and they're from Asia. Such as Japan, Hong Kong and Taiwan.
Some expert opinions would be appreciated.
Edit :
Forgot to mention, i have a few similar logs in Eventviewer too. No idea what it means. ( Image #3 )
