hatte bei mit Größe 45118 und war auch eine Hilfsdatei von LabView (National Instruments). Sie versuchte bei mir, lokal UDP-Pakete zu verschicken.

It is part of the program MULTISIM (simulation of electrical circuits) - software by National Instruments

National Instruments is famous for putting Spyware like this on systems that get any of their products installed, and they leave it on after the software is Uninstalled. If you have removed all of the National Instruments software (like Labview), you will find they left behind two System Services on your PC, the "National Instruments PSP Server Locator" Service and the "National Instruments Time Synchronization" Service. You can use the Services management tool to set them to not start automatically.
