Sony Jog dial Server. App for the scroll wheel on the Sony Vaio, safe to remove if you don't use it.

Came with Sony VAIO Win XP - it's an annoyance as it tends to just pop up on screen at random and likes to connect itself to Internet Explorer and MS Messenger. There is no close function on it's menu, you can hide it but can't shut the dang thing off which means you periodocally have to stop and shut down I/E or whatever it decides to run. It could be dangerous in that it does go online by itself and likes to open that Messenger channel - a great place to get hacked.
