    Well I started messing around with the Nvidia Control Panel to configure multiple displays (my notebook + external 17").


    The question I have is that now Comodo Firewall gives me warnings on anything that connects to the internet about rundll32.exe plugging "nview.dll" into whatever program that I just launched, i.e. Firefox, using a "global hook, which could be used by keyloggers..."


    This warning only appeared after I started messing with nView within the nVidia control panel...is it safe to let it just go? Firefox won't connect to anything if I don't allow it though...

    As always, any help appreciated :D
