LSASS.exe trying to communicate over port 80

Question

We are running a standalone web server (Windows 2008 + IIS 7), and our antivirus is blocking LSASS.exe (C:\Windows\system32\lsass.exe) from making outbound connections over port 80.

Why is LSASS doing this? (Should I be worried?)

Answer 1

You should run a virus check and see what turns up. Try a few different ones to be sure.
