Hi All,

I was just doing some cleaning up on my home system (W2K Pro SP3) and I
noticed this “piiserviceO” in the processes list. I found it in the
registry under “HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run”, but I
can’t find any info on it either at MSKB or via google searches. I’ve
deleted the key and haven’t noticed any change in the systems behaviour, but
I’d like to know what it is (or was)…

I can’t find any files on the system named ‘piiserviceO’, or any variation
thereof, and google gave me zero returns (a first) except for something
called ‘psiservice’.

TIA.
