Dieses exe wird allgemein bei Visual Studio darunter auch die bereits genannte Microsoft SQL Server Anwendung installt und ist demnach ungefährlich.

sqlbrowser.exe - Structured Query Language (SQL) is a specialised language for updating, deleting, and requesting info from databases. This is a MS Windows process. Part of the MS SQL Server. Provides browsing services. Essential service and should not be terminated. However it's not a critical program and can be terminated without causing instability. Usually found in c:\program files\microsoft sql server\90\shared\sqlbrowser.exe. If located anywhere else, be suspicious.
