Don't know what other programs use it and would like to remove it if it is not "required" !....I have Win XP SP3 HOME ED. it's about 6 mb by Vantage software and Linguistics.
Anyone have any idea about it or where I can look?
I'm trying to clean up my desktop pc.
thanks

just because I don't use it doesn't mean that some other program won't at some time, but

No connections to any Office apps so why not eject it?
