i believe that it is from MS office.. it is used to look up microsoft document's faster, but i could be getting it mixed up with something else..

Do you have Power Toys installed? It may be fast user switching.

It is a "Font Assistant Executable."

Other than that, though, I have no information. Ships with OLD versions of Word, it looks like.

Q95689 might have more info for you.

Power Toys is installed... It's the fast user switcher, then.

Here's how to remove it
