[resolved]What Is Pchooklaunch32.exe
Under the processes tab in task manager I have pchooklauncher32.exe running. The properties tab says it is part of Bitdefender 2011. Can anyone reassure me this is legitimate.

Its not in AntiVirus, 32bit or 64bit. Its only in Internet Security or Total Security as it is associated with the Parental Control module.
