Digital Line Detect ??

This software shipped with my Dimension 4600 and appears to be related to a phone line hook-up.  I couln't find much on it except it comes from the Black Ice folks.  Since I use a LAN/cable to access the Web instead of phone line and have software AV and Firewall, can I uninstall this software?  It runs in the background and I'm from the old school, only run what you need and protect resources.

 

Thanks.  BB

    This is used for laptops to prevent damage that might be caused if you plugged your dial-up modem into a digital phone line, rather than a regular analog phone line. When you're lugging your laptop around, you never know what kind of phone line you're plugging into until it's too late.

    Not needed.

    Uncheck it in msconfig to prevent it from running.
