The idea here is to learn something from it. Reformatting the system is
a good idea, but before that takes place it'd be nice to learn what the
thing actually is and how it works. 

This thing respawns itself without a reboot. Loading Tiny Personal
Firewall apparently prevents it from respawning. TPF does something
about preventing code from being injected into a process, so maybe
that's why TPF keeps it at bay. 

This isn't on any system I use or manage. It's on a collegue's system
and I am trying to help find a way to figure out what it does, how to
get it shut down permanently, removed if possible. 

Thanks for the suggestions to those who've provided some, including a
reformat ;-)
