    Winmgmt.exe is a core component of client management in Windows 2000. This process initializes when the first client application connects. Winmgmt.exe corresponds to the WMI service that allows monitoring of such resources on the machine (memory, disk ...). This process is called Wmiprvse.exe on XP.
