Anyone know what this is?

Hi guys.. I'm stumped... just been to someones laptop earlier today.. and found it running pretty slow.

did ctrl-alt-del.. and saw this ___r.exe taking up mega processor power.

Anyone know what it is?

when I end it.. the pc runs slightly faster... but.. still kinda slow.. but then.. they have win xp pro on it, and its only got 192 meg and a celeron processor running at 547mhz , its a satalite pro 4200 laptop.

any ideas would be great.

Cheers
Jay
