    this is running in my processes at 95% and over. My CPU is going to internally combust. When its not running at that level system idle process is 35%+ and the system process is likewise. I have norton xp firewall running + norton disk doctor. When i stop the process about 60 temp files open with an address bar that contains reference to an update.

    Any aid and abeit appreciated.

    symproxysvc.exe - Here is the scoop on Transparent proxy server. The big question: what is symproxysvc.exe and is it spyware, a trojan and if so, how do I get rid of Transparent proxy server?
    symproxysvc.exe (Transparent proxy server) - Details

    The symproxysvc.exe process is a local proxy server, and is a core component of Norton Internet security. It is required for Norton products to function correctly. If this process is stopped, Norton Internet security will not be able to effectively protect your computer, and you run the risk of being infected by viruses, trojans and other malware.

    symproxysvc.exe is an application that does NOT appear to be a security risk

    The Spy Bot database currently registers symproxysvc.exe to Symantec.

    This is part of Symantec internet security.

    reinstall norton,
    it seems to be having a bad day ;)
