    unknown software


    From time to time I check my installed programs list and I came across two that I have no clue how they got there or what they do. I need some clarification as to what they are.

    PunkBuster Services
    Python 2.5

    The odd thing is in my uninstall programs in the control panel, it shows PB buy does not list Python 2.5. In Revo uninstaller is how I found Python 2.5

    Python is a programming language and is likely used by some application that you installed.

    Punkbuster is an anti cheating software used by tons of games.
