PostgreSQL is a database server. If you don't know what it is, it's
highly likely it was installed by another program that you do use. Do
not uninstall it unless you know for sure that you do not use it.

As for the space taken up, that's just weird. Do you have any database
programs, accounting, logging, image management, photo management, music
management, etc programs on your computer?

If in doubt, open the Services control panel, and stop the PostgreSQL
service. Then see what programs stop working.

Please DO NOT RESPOND TO THIS EMAIL. This page is for bug reports, and
this is not a bug. If you need further assistance I suggest asking on
http://superuser.com or on the PostgreSQL general mailing list
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-general/ . I will not respond to
replies that go directly to me.
