    LFD is a little too sensitive by default and very commonly triggers on normal server processes unless excluded from it's "watch list" ...

    In your case, LFD is seeing Spamassassin (a normal process) running on your server which is up almost continuously running since all incoming mail to your server is generally passed through the spamassassin (spamd) server process and the content of messages checked against the spam rules. LFD just gets worried because it sees a process open that is staying open and sending you an alert about it.

    We normally exclude the "spamd" process from being watched by LFD.

    Basically there is nothing to worry about.

    As another side note, 127.0.0.1 is your own server.

    Both mails 1&2 can be taken care of by reading the manual. Or check this thread: Process Tracking and csf.pignore - ConfigServer Scripts Forum
