SOPTION Service in Win2k server

[scoott.ford]

I have a service that is set to run under the
administrator account. I have never seen the service, and
I do not recall installing an app that would have placed
it there. Does anyone know what the service "SOPTION" is,
and how can I find out what it is attached to?

Nevermind.. figured it out !

Run regedt32.exe and navigate to;
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\SOPTION
and have a look at the Reg_Expand_Sz string "ImagePath" value. Does the file
exist at that location? If so the file properties may reveal something.
