Part of DELLs Resolution Assistant which ships with most DELL PCs. MOTMON is however also found on Compaq and HP PCs. Wherever it is found, it is in fact bought/licensed from Motive Communications and is software which purports to enable your PC supplier to better support you. DELLs description of MOTMON : "The Resolution Assistant provides an easy-to-use graphical interface for submitting service requests and keeping track of service requests you have already submitted". The Resolution Assistant enables you to submit problems via the Internet, with information collected by the Resolution Assistant also submitted automatically in the process (Resolution Assistant does give you the ability to control what is sent, although you will never know if it sends information other than what it gives you control over).
Recommendation :
If you have a DELL PC, and you are still within the support period with DELL, you may wish to leave it alone. Many users, however, have complained of "unknown errors" with MOTMON. Since this software is definitely not essential to the good running of your PC, if you experience such errors, or you are worried about your privacy, simply disable MOTMON with Startup Manager.
