I got this process running after installing Pro Engineer Wildfire 3.0 downloaded from a torent file. PTC is the creator of the ProE software. Installation was not successful and I un-installed it. This process cannot be killed in Win Task Manager (it re-appears immediately).

This program is related to the FlexLM licensing for CAD package, ProEngineer. It is essential for the running of the ProE license server.
