Pchealth

[Windwatcher]

Reviewing a list of program installed on my computer, I found pchealth.
Since I didnd't know what it was, I looked it up on the internet, and now
I'm really confused. Is this a legitimate Windows component or is it a
virus/worm of some kind? If so, what damage does it do (there is an
unexplained weird program on this computer) and how do I get rid of it?
If it's legit, do I need to do anythhing with it?

Unfortunately it looks like a virus

IF it is in your system folder [which is at C:WINDOWS] and has three
sub-folders named "ERRORREP", "helpctr", and "UploadLB", it is a legitimate
Windows XP file. For instance, the "helpctr" contains your Help and Support
Center file. NEVER EVER remove any thing from that WINDOWS folder unless you
know EXACTLY what you are doing. The correct name of the folder is all lower
case "pchealth".
If you have a Pchealth folder outside the WINDOWS folder, it is suspicious.
