Selected Answer: C
I think lsass.exe is correct, because it listens on strange port for all incoming connections. A - it's not unusual at all, and also it is possible that wininit.exe process has stopped and that winevtd.exe got the sam PID. B - wmpnetwk.exe is not unusual at all D - it is legit that multiple svchost.exe related processes have been started at the same time. In mine opinion, avp.exe would be the best answer, but since is not an option, lsass.exe is the best answer.

what about winevtd.exe? it has the same PID - 596 as wininit.exe has in the tasklist.
