Overview

growl.exe executes as a process with the local user's privileges typically within the context of its parent soluto.exe (Soluto Anti-Frustration Software by Soluto). It is set to be run when the PC boots and the user logs into Windows (added to the Run registry key for the current user). The assembly utilizes the .NET run-time framework (which is required to be installed on the PC).
