I installed the older version ot the "logitech" mouse software because the options I needed weren't available with the XP that I bought. I use "FIREFOX" alot andI found the software during a "bottle neck" occasion which was slowing down my PC..The process doesntt show after start-up but only after I start using "FIREFOX" . I don't know if this is related to the -older version- download or if supposed to respond in some way to the high volume tabs I use. I then call the task manager and delete it . It doesn't seem to affect the proper operation at all... but don't know what benefit it might h

It makes my computer run sooo slowly. Whenever it is up my CPU usage is always around 100%. But when I stop it via "end process" the CPU usage drops drastically to around 20-ish% To be this could be some sort of malware nameddisguised as a safe file.

Interferes with Nortel IPSec V06_01.054 - causes IPSec to shut down when you suspend your PC with Cntrl-Alt-Del / Lock

This Logitech process is important for proper functionality of extra mouse keys.

annoying thought, I don't use it. Unless you use all your extra mouse functionality (and you have a logitech), then kill it dead.

It's freekin Logitech software, it does no harm, and if you don't like it uninstall it. Don't be a dipshit and rate it harmful just because you have some superiority complex about how you think apps/drivers should run.

Occasionally causes erratic mouse problems, but I think it also is what tells me my cordless mouse battery state.
