subject: fulltiltpoker.exe update enquiry
Hello,
The Fulltiltpoker.exe update of 10/30/09 (Australian time) has set off the following alarms, red flags and alerts within my operating system firewall and is repeatedly telling me that, normally, programs do not need to access physical memory.
I am extremely concerned that fulltilt, without seeking permission from me, may now be able to change the security settings of my operating system.
The alerts are as follows:
FULLTILTPOKER.EXE is trying to access physical memory.
The current security setting for FULLTILTPOKER.EXE does not permit this action.
Details
A program that has access to physical memory can potentially change any data currently stored in memory. This includes program instructions, data, and security settings. Normally programs do not need access to physical memory.
What should I do?
If FTP. EXE needs to access physical memory in order to function correctly and you trust this program, then choose allow. If you do not trust this program or the program does not need to access physical memory then deny it. If you are unsure, you can always deny access and run the program again if it is required.
FTP.EXE may be malicious. It may be attempting to affect other programs or the security of the system. Normally, programs do not need to access physical memory.
