All comments about dwtrig20.exe:
PC Part of a Service Pack for MS Office 2003 including Sharepoint, Project, Visio. Check link for full details.  See also: Link
fairly certain this is a temp run command for office 2003 that is used when an office app is opened in safe mode. Usually due to a service being turned off
Kevin Sangwell This is a legitimate file (not spy/malware) which sends error reporting information to Microsoft if a programme crashes. It will ask your perfmission before sending. Recommend leaving the file in place.  See also: Link
Criminet installed with office 12 prerelease
Boughto Was added as startup process after I installed PhotoshopCS2. I DO NOT run Office2k3 - only OfficeXP. Not really needed if only reports on crashes.
CrownRoyal office 2007 as well
Tom installed with office 2007 beta 2 for error reporting
Peter K After 3 weeks this meesage comes up on my xp system. I do not have office installed.
Mauricio D'avila It's an error sender program for Microsoft Office 2003 and some others MS applications.
Its nothing to do with Office, i had office installed for months before this thing cropped up... though i'm not sure, i think its something to do with Dr. Watson, which sends debug info to microsoft and notifies you of serious errors.. most probably, this one comes in with Windows Defender or IE 7's SP patch.
BlueJay I have none of the MS applications mentioned by other users here. This process is activated at boot time when an application previously failed to install. After the report has been sent to MS, the process is unloded.
