It's a part of SetPoint for blue tooth mouse and/or keyboard. If I let it run during Windows XP startup, the Win XP startup sound quits immediately after it starts. :(

Installed with my Logitech G5 mouse. It is needed for the extra functions for the mouse. namely the SetPoint software drivers so you use more buttons, different ways to scroll, etc. If you bought this mouse and disable this then you wasted alot of money by not being able to access its many features.
