My research indicates its software installer for corporate environments. It allows installation to many PCs on a network. Notably, it seems it was used by Gateway and Emachines and should have been removed before boxing up. I found this site

http://www.networkswatteam.com/prismxl.html

Which provides specific instructions on how to remove it.
