| Talis | It is part of the Sygate Firewall program. While I have been told by friends with post-secondary training in computers that I have nothing to be worried about, I also sometimes find that when my computer freezes and I go CTRL+ALT+DEL to see which of my running programs are bugging, I will often times see "SMC.exe [not responding]". I don't know if this means that my copy of SMC.exe needs replacing, or if it just means that it's not working at the moment... |
