What's a wuauclt.exe?
My computer (named molasses for its speed) every 15 minutes or so displays a popup stating that wuauclt.exe has to close and asks if an error message should be sent? What is this program all about and why would something like this happen?
I actually removed wuauclt.exe from the computer, but another copy appeared, so I guess it has some function other than giving me fits. If the file is corrupted, where can I get a replacement?

Wuauclt.exe is the AutoUpdate Client of Windows Update and is used to check for available updates (for the various versions of the MS Windows platform) from Microsoft Update. The wuauclt.exe file is included in the Task Manager’s list of active processes when it is waiting for a response or an action to be performed by the user.
