ctfmon?

I am just curious.

Whenever I monitor the processess running on my computer there is a 'ctfmon'.

I can usually end the task and it doesnt affect my computer. But if I
disable the process in services.msc it causes my computer to go to the blue
screen whenever I reboot (as in, the computer runs fine until I reboot once I
have disabled it in services.msc).

Now in my anti-spyware software (webroots SpySweeper) it tells me that
ctfmon may be an issue, and it is showing the same registry path as other
spyware. But ctfmon is 'microsoft signed', the others arent.

Should it be ok to let SpySweeper get rid of it, or should I just leave it be?
 
Thanks for the help, but i would also like to know, while we are on the
topic, what is the process 'mdm' for? I think it might be for debugging with
with the visual suite but I am not sure.

Remove it.
It is the Machine Debug Manager and causes more trouble than it is worth like generating
numerous long file name.FFF files in the %windir% folder.
