Process names should be safe to share, since all users on a system can see them and a system is supposed to be secure for a user even with other malicious users. No sane software puts keys or passwords into stdargs where it can be seen through a
psor something.DNS lookups should also be secure in a sense since no one in their right mind would write server software where the port/address is the key, but privacy might also be a problem. (Then again, if you are browsing FreePorn.com while doing this, maybe you deserve any consequences.)
FYI, I think on Windows you can only see processes for your user unless your user is an Admin.
Windows Vista/7 makes not running as Admin more common.
Yes, well, Windows doesn't have a very good history when it comes to supporting multiple users - not nearly as good as Unix systems, anyway. So draconian measures are to be expected.
