I accidentally opened my task manager and when I did, I seen alot more tasks running than usual. So I looked throug hte list and found this LuCallbackProxy.exe in the list at least 7 times. When I tried to "end process" on one of them, it told me that access was denied and would not let me end it. So I decided to Google it and see what it was, which is what brought me here. As soon as i clicked on the link to come here, every single one of them suddenly stopped.

I believe it is a virus. I was on Symantec's website trying to manually update my virus definitions. I had the task manger up, when LuCallbackProxy .exe appeared, the download ceased saying it was completed. I tried to open downloaded file and error message came up saying it was corrupted or incomplete.

It actually DOES belong to symantec's internet security program, thus not malicious.

Anmerkung: wenn liveupdate ausgeführt wird (im Hintergrund natürlich) findet sich die datei im Tast Manager! Ist der Prozess abgeschlossen, verschwindet sie. Wenn sie also permanent auffindbar ist im TM dann ist es ein Virus.
