Background process? Sometimes a certain program will butt me out of a game, though give no external signs, it's mysterious.

Yeah, I got the same thing also sometimes. Not really a big deal for me.
Most probably is an anti-virus program (scan completed ro something) or anti-spyware scan completed. Like Hermeslyre said they are usually background processes.

Since it's not any malicious thing I guess I can stop worrying

I had a case like this, where it WAS a malicious trojan kicking me out.

Just run Virus Scans, Keep Firewall up, And you should be ok.

It still does it for me everynow and then, even tho i reformatted the other day So it doesn mean your computer is Infected, im just saying there is a chance.

Counter-Strike: Source Mainly does it when im joining a server.

Who knows if it's not malicious... As long as you don't know what it is, you should keep looking...

That's definitely a background process, you might want to check you processes.
