This is on my HP Compaq 6715b business laptop running Vista Business 64 bit. I've gone through add/remove programs and uninstalled what I didn't want or didn't recognize. But task manager shows a couple of processes that I'm not sure  about. I need help identifying what software uses these processes.

#1 IfxUAGUI.exe / description = no descrition
Seems like I recognize the name Infineon Technologies , but I can't find exactly which process it is related to it?

#2 PSDrt.exe *32 / description = PSD Runtime Application
According to goggle this is also Infineon Technologies

Some malware camouflage themselves as IfxUAGUI.exe, particularly if they are located in c:\windows or c:\windows\system32 folder.

I don't see it in c:\ windows, nor do I see it in c:\windows\system32.
But task manager now gives a 'description' = "User Authentication GUI"

I'm thinking it may be related to the fingerprint scanner I use to log into my administrator account but that's just a guess?
or
It may be related to all the security stuff used with Vista Business x64.

Task managed does not give me a path for the file location. How do I find this in order to find it's location?

I found the TPM 1.2 driver in device manager. So I'm confident it's a legit process although it's not listed in /program files/ or /program files (x86)

Thanks for the help Transfusion!!!  ;)
