Can I disable this for startup?

[notebooknewbie]

It's ucstartup.exe

According to Liutilities, it's for the IBM Update Connector, which doesn't seem like a big deal (I can always manually start it up if I want it), but on the description it says: "...This program is important for the stable and secure running of your computer and should not be terminated."

Is it OK to disable or should I just leave it?

Thanks in advance.

You can disable it.
