Led hotkey keyboard

In the bottom row of the computer (sorry, very little computer language - not sure if this is what you would call the system tray???) there is a "button" that says LED HOTKEY KEYBOARD - I click on it and nothing happens, but when it shows up on start up, I can pretty much be guaranteed my computer is going to shut down unexpectedly, even crash. Does anybody know what this is, if it's necessary and how I get rid of it if not necessary???

I'm running Windows Vista - I use Google Chrome as a browser. I'm not sure what other information you would find useful to assist me, but if there is something else that you need to know, please feel free to ask....

Thank you for anything you can help me with ! (I've googled this and I'm not really finding any satisfactory answers, but I will continue to search further in the meantime)

 

Hello TEAM,

I am moving your thread to Software since it does not sound like you are having malware issues.

 

Thank you ! I honestly had no idea where to put it ! Much appreciated !

 

What is the make and model of the keyboard?

 

Well, I got the keyboard with the computer - the computer is a Gateway, but the keyboard doesn't have the make shown on it - only says Acer Inc. in small print above the bar code...the model is a KU-0883

 

Thank you for still looking !! if it is not a Windows core file, then does that mean I could uninstall the exe file??
