Winsock Service Providers Multiple instances Running

[Guest]

When checking the WInsock Service Providers catagory it shows several of the
exact same service running. Is this normal?
1. MSAFD nwlnkspx (SPX) (Pseudo Stream) Allowed
3 entries
2.MSAFD NetBios DATAGRAM 1,4,5,6,7 Allowed
5 entries

In the description they match exactly

Where can I find interpretations of Defenders findings?

Thank you
Denise

Hmm - when I see that, the "special path" at the end, and the display
name--differ between the instances.

I don't know the explanation--in some cases I have 10 or more of a given
object. I suspect that each is an instance of the same code tied to some
different object, though.
