 phil paxton | not registered in xp registry |
 Devrim | InstallShield Update Service Scheduler. Automatically searches for and performs any updates to the software so you are always working with the most current version |
| | Occasionally connects to the internet for updates, does not really let you know what it is downloading, can be somewhat annoying. I am going to remove it. |

| | Not a danger but takes up space you can get downloads manually. |
| Carl | It "suddenly" appeared after Microsoft changed their updating process. It lists updates for several things I've already updated so I don't trust it. |
| | Nusence file |
| Damien Jorgensen | Installdshield Automatic Downloader, checks application installations which are made using the InstallShield software for updates. |
 james Mac | downloader - activates occassionally to download updates - can't see its added value |
| K1t10 | Its used to update software that uses installshield but is impossible to remove!! |
 Bill | Not listed in add/remove programs, reinstalls itself |
 hw huyler | It seems to be a MACROVISION (M) update product. I don't have "M" on my START UP list nor in my ADD or REMOVE files. It bothers me that it comes on automatically at start up. |
| jeff huyler | the service hangs more often then it runs correctly, I am going to disable it. |
| webbcues | It is part of Windows Defender - Beta2 |
| Salim | Installshield Update Services. It is kind of buggy, doesnt always recognize what you have installed. It doesnt get uninstalled when you uninstall the installshield product or a product that uses installshield update service technology. Use the link for the uninstaller |
| RHuskey | Has issue's with Roxio Media Creator 8 Suite. EVERY time system reboots it attempts to update, even if updates are current. |
| JoeR | Installs without asking. Near useless, not necessary. NOTE: Users should also remove Install Driver Table Manager from XP Services list using MSCONFIG. |
| Ted Volin | If configured incorrectly, will function as a trojan horse. Made it difficult to unistall Vongo (preloaded by HP on notebooks) |
| jdoe | Weg damit, braucht keiner! Ist eine Install Schnellstart Anwendung. |
| Ken | It's a third party process that just appears, without your permission, with no notice, and no uninstall. In my book it's dangerous |
| steve blomme | ISUSPM.exe installed on my computer with the Paperport program. If you run it and click on the menu to see what programs it is checking for (Advanced) then you will likely see the program it came with provided it came onto your computer legitimately. You can also disable it to run at start up from the menu. |
| jtsm | Updater, Came with Dell Laptop for my version. |
| | It is horrible and locks up the internet connection. |
| Stephen LaFond - Another HP Support Victim | Update Manager /Windows Installer error msgs prevent boot completion and any other installs System hangs |
| ben petti | it isnt dangerous at all it is just a installshield update manager |
| WarGasm | I see no adverse effects from blocking it's update. |
| YaHa | This process appears when I installed "WinDVD - Trial version" on my machine, in the same time a "Program updates" icon in the Start menu / Programs |
| dp Bethesda | Mine seems to have come with a Quick Time/iTunes update. It asked if I wanted automatic update checking. That must be what did it. Everytime I log in it tries to run, but tries to find a nonexistent ISUS.msi file. Only way to get rid of it is to force an End Task on the process from Windows Task Manager. |
| H@nk | I had it combined with windvd8 and when i uninstall it that macrovision updater stays and i cannot get rid of it. |
| ScratchMonkey | Often steals focus while at a critical point in an online game. Very annoying. |
| K-red | it is used by a few programs to update themselves |
| brenda | My system has slowed to a crawl and I have determined it is this file. think I will delete as well. |
| grikdog | must be deleted to remove Vongo from HP systems |
| Kel | Process belongs to Macrovision, a company that is in the business of illegal copy prevention. Apparently it interpret a certain "digital pulse signal" that is included on some DVDs (and other media) as part of an 'anti-piracy' prevention initiative. Not necessary and weather disabled or enabled, doesn't seem to make ANY difference to PC operation in the slightest.

| RickH | This program installed itself when I installed the Walmart Downloads Store in Windows Media Player. If is not necessary for programs like this to install themselves without our knowledge. |
| Donald Kinstler | You can remove the InstallShield Update Manager (isuspm.exe and agent.exe) by downloading a utility from installshield's website. See also: Link |
| Travis | This is the background check application for the InstallShield Update Service. It polls the servers to check for updates to other installed applications that ship with ISUS as part of the install. Applications that use it install it silently without any warning to you, so that's why it seems to suddenly appear. It can be removed but only via a 100% manual process that requires first killing the ISUSPM.exe and AGENT.exe processes, then cleaning the registry and Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\UpdateService folders. |
