The leak is caused by windows interaction with the app...not the app itself. Needed for wireless connectivity. Right click on your connection icon, and choose 'repair' to dump it's cache, and restart it without rebooting or killing the process.

causes my hard drive to thrash every 2 or 3 seconds. I have an HP laptop with an intel wireless card. I stopped the process which immediately stopped the thrashing. I don't know what issues will crop up with it off but will try running with out it.

It's associated with Intel ProSET Wireless adapters/management. Has a memory leak, after a few days, it's eating 211Mb of RAM.

I have version 10.5.1.x so I suppose it;'s not a memory eater (noticed it on filemon and made me wonder what it is). I have Intel wireless on my laptop and filesize is 946176 bytes so I think its safe to leave it on..

It launches cmd.exe and ipconfig.exe every 2 seconds and eats up all the CPU indirectly.
