    Does anyone knows what this program is for? I bought a new laptop recently , and everytime when I shut down my laptop, it says that this program is still running, and asks me if I want to "End Now". I checked the startup setup at msconfig, and could not find this program, only found TosBtMng.exe. Is there any way to deactivate tosOBEX? And will it cause any harm by deactivating it?

    I just googled it for you, and it looks like it's got soemthing to do with Bluetooth. If you don't use bluetooth, you can probably disable it and be fine.
