I'm trying to do an unscientific survey of whether or not the file NetSvc.exe could be malware

Gurus,

I'm trying to do an unscientific survey of whether or not this file
(NetSvc.exe) could be malware or worse: C:\Program
Files\Intel\NCS\Sync\NetSvc.exe.

It's an executable file, of course it could be malware!

....but what is worse than malware?
