I am checking certs and authentication as I can. So when my Globle Panda Security, which I believe is doing a good job, ask if I wanted PSevents.exe to access the internet I looked to see what it was. I am keeping it.

Bkav's detection "W32.HfsAdware.637F" was a false positive. None of the anti-virus programs at VirusTotal detects the PSEvents.exe file now.
