| SNMP is a protocol for remotely administrating a computer's network behavior. Unless your computer is being remotely administrated, there is no reason to have this agent running. I would suggest disabling it. See also: Link - http://www.neuber.com/taskmanager/process/snmp.exe.html More information | |||
