It seems to be part of the "Dell Direct Support" package (at least in the case below).

More AUBrowse info

The AUBrowse window just did it's pop-up thing. I opened the Task Manager window and right clicked on AUBrowse in the list and selected "Go To Process". It gave me a file named DSBrws.exe. When I closed the AUBrowse window, DSBrws.exe left the Process list.

I did a search to find out where this was in my computer and came up with 2 finds:

C:\Program Files\Dell Support\DSBrws.exe Size:278KB Type:Application Date Modified:8/3/2004 (this is when I purchased my Dell Inspiron 9100)

C:\WINDOWS\Prefetch\DSBRWS.exe-070367AA.pf size:67KB Type:PF File Date Modified:7/1/2005 (last date the AUBrowse window poped-up - today)

Thinking this might have some lagitimate reason to be on my Dell, I clicked on my Dell Support icon in the tray and selected Security. The window went blank, but it did have a label of "Check Now" with the Dell icon in the tray. I opened the Task Manager again and right clicked "Check Now" and selected "Go To Process" - - - it gave me the same file name: DSBwrs.exe. I selected "End Task" and the blank window closed.
