   Updater? Wupdater?

   Can someone tell me if the file "Wupdater" an EXE type, is associated   
   with Windows 95 or MS Office?   
      
   I have run into a problem at boot (cold and warm) where this file   
   seems to be hanging and preventing files from launching.   
      
   I use CTRL-ALT-DEL when the mouse pointer gets stuck afterbook on the   
   hour glass and themessage on the screen says that Wupdater is not   
   responsing.   
      
   This file appears to be in   
      
   C:\Program files>Common Files>updater\wupdater.exe   
      
   Once I CTRL-ALT-DEL and use END TASK, I can then usually proceed.   
      
   The "updater" folder has "delupdat" and "sui" as additional files.  I   
   thought the "delupdat" might be an uninstaller but that is also not   
   responsing.   
      
   This is a new problem.   
      
   We do not have an up to date anti-virus but have been very careful of   
   where we go on the net and where we click.
