It's Ati Hotkey Poller driver; It permits to activate the overdrive mode (more GPU and memory frequency) in 3d applications and games. It's very important to NOT REMOVE because you can lost a lot of 3d computing power. Only, I don't understand because is load in memory two times...

Yep, it's the ATI Hotkey Poller, and it's useless unless you want to mess with your screen using the hotkeys (I don't). But it CAN cause problems when the service is enabled because on playing video, it can reset your power options in the control panel tab.

Appeared only after having a serious spyware invasion on my computer.
