I have found that this file is what looks like Malware. My copy of HitmanPro 3.7.6 was able to pick it up. It quarantined the sucker. Every time I have to reinstall Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit, I uninstall everything Wajam right after reinstall and never have had a problem with it until know when I forgot to. Before my computer has worked fine without it since I do not know what it is for.
