This program usually comes with your graphics card and/or some video games. AGEIA PhysXBoxes is nothing more than a 3D demo. However, your description of computer performance does tell tail of malware infection. Try running MBAM, SuperAnti-Spyware, and keep a good anti-virus up-to-date. http://malwarebytes.org/mbam.php http://www.superantispyware.com/download.html You might also want to run a system cleanup with CCleaner and do a defrag (or use IOrbit SmartDefrag to get it done automatically at scheduled times). http://ccleaner.com http://www.iobit.com/iobitsmartdefrag.html Hope this helps. :)

Not sure how it got there, as it seems to be a driver for a PHYSX card http://hothardware.com/articles/BFG-Ageia-PhysX-Physics-Card/ Or a demo library whicg can be installed without the card http://www.techimo.com/newsapp/index.pl?photo=16311 One way you might have got it... http://hothardware.com/Reviews/BFG-Ageia-PhysX-Physics-Card/?page=3 "Those who are installing Ghost Recon ADvanced Warfighter will be forced to install the Ageia drivers and this panel regardless of whether a PhysX card is present or not." I guess you could see if it shows up in add/remove programs.

It appears to be some type of drawing program... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n-92YDwrDGY Maybe someone using your computer downloaded it.... I found this thread...http://www.hardwareheaven.com/gaming-discussion/106151-removing-ageia-physx.html Hope that it helps.

I don't know what that is but since you have a Dell I will give you a link to reset your computer to factory settings. it is on the dell website. I used this a few weeks ago and it took care of a virus and I kept all my photos and stuff.

This is a demonstration of the PhysX engine, created before PhysX has been overtaken by NVIDIA... what games or sites have you been to me i think i would do a serious scan in safe to make sure.
