Running Windows 7 Pro with Microsoft Security Essentials.  Every once and a 
while the Microsoft Malware Protection Command Line Utility uploads over 100 
megs to this computer.  Unfortunately I have not been keeping track of the 
dates this happens but have now started to see if there is a pattern to the 
dates.  I manually check every morning to confirm the virus definitions have 
been updated (this usually involves a couple of megs).  I have also gone 
through the task scheduler to see if there something I would recognize that 
would be doing this without finding anything obvious to me.  Anybody have 
any idea what is going on?  This is probably harmless but I still want to 
understand it.
