lsass.exe trying to contact my computer

Upon returning from being gone all morning, my firewall (Zone Alarm) tells me that lsass.exe is trying to contact my computer. I denied the request. I don't recall seeing this before, but the alert did say that the request had been made before (I think). When I looked it up, what I found says it can be a regular part of Windows or is can be a virus. I checked my alert log and didn't see anything there with "lsass.exe" in it, but there were many listed alerts that were blocked. Did I do the right thing?

Windows XP Pro 2002
