    What this is: "Windows Genuine Advantage Notification (WgaTray.exe)"

    My firewall keeps asking to let it access the computer, its only appeared in the past two days :confused:

    Yeah it is, it was released in the most recent set of windows updates.

    Basically allows microsoft to tell if your copy of windows is legit or not.
