I have a screen popping up that looks fishy, asking for my .Net passport signon. I traced it back to this program as the running process associated with the window. The screen looks like a hoax to me. I'm deleting it., and getting information from Google on the proper file size, etc from this process.

I've been using this for several months since I installed GoogleDesktop2 Sidebar (it's a Google plug-in from Google.com). It has been found useful & harmless (as per Norton & AVG & Ad-Aware & Spybot & more). Today I'm getting recurring error saying python23.dll file is missing so need to reinstall app to fix problem.
