The main program executable is appgraffiti.exe. A vast majority of those who have this installed end up removing it just after a couple weeks. The software installer includes 8 files and is usually about 1.98 MB (2,081,332 bytes). AGupdate.exe is the automatic update component of the software designed to download and apply new updates should new versions be released.
