What is Dr Watson?

On my PC I have a DR Watson program instaled. Is this one of Microsoft programmes??. Just got concerned when I saw it.

Dr Watson (Drwtsn32.exe)  is Microsoft’s built in error detecting tool. It has been around in almost every version of Windows and it attempts to analyse problems with your computer. Microsoft have a description of Dr Watson on their website

It’s a harmless program that unfortunately isn’t as useful as it could be, but it won’t hurt your system.
