There is an executable installed by this called meventagent.exe once the program is run and you do something like activate sucessfully it tries to access a few different IP numbers using https connections… looks like this program dials home to deliver some sort of information… and consumes large portions of CPU unless you let it through your firewall…peaking at 53% on a multi-core CPU so is multi-threaded… End Tasked in task manager, yikes it continues on even though it no longer shows in Taskmanager… and my C: SSD drive got awfully hot at 51C! Lets see if other tools can see it or control it… Process Explorer cannot see it windows private firewall GUI for windows firewall reports the process name and process ID but that ID is not shown in task manager or process explorer… looks like I am going to have to logout and log back in to see if that terminates the process or a full reboot will be needed… be back later… This is looking like malicious invasive software so far, thankfully I do not use the default Windows 10 firewall rules that permit all outbound traffic and have been able to stop this rogue process from making contact with its homebase!
