From: vwheeler Looks like it is Legitimate pre-installed spyware, you probably do not want it. http://www.processlibrary.com/directory/files/tgcmd/ "Description: tgcmd.exe is a process associated with an online support software from SupportSoft. It is often used for on-line support by large manufacturers like Sony and Toshiba." http://www.winpatrol.com/db/freesample/tgcmd.html "Spyware - TGCMD.EXE TGCMD.EXE is spyware originally created by Tioga/Support.com. If you're an {at}Home subscriber, this was probably installed with your Comcast {at}home software. If you own a Sony Vaio system, it was probably factory installed along with the Sony Support software."
