"Has anyone else noticed httpproxy.exe running in Task Manager?"

Hey folks,

So I was checking my Task Manager earlier and spotted httpproxy.exe running in the background. Never noticed it before, and now I'm kinda paranoid.

Is this thing legit? Or should I be worried? Quick Google search gave mixed results—some say it’s part of a VPN or proxy software, others say it could be sketchy.

Anyone else seen this? If it’s safe, cool, but if not… how do I nuke it? lol

Thanks in advance!
