I'm not certain, but I think it's put there by System Commander. I know that I have it in my autoexec.bat, but it wasn't there when Windows was installed, and System Commander is the only program that I have installed on this PC that in any way affects the MBR.

I also have the loadqm.exe coming up on mine wanting me to close it as an illegal operation. It's getting quite annoying as it does it for every page or what have you. How do you uninstall it?
