What is CSHelper.exe?

I have recently noticed on my list of processes in Windows Task Manager, that there is a new process running: CSHelper.exe

I have never seen it before and know nothing about it. Is it something I need to get rid of, or is it there to do some good? Can I get rid of it if it is something that is unnecessary?

Update:

What is ArtistScope then? I haven't heard of it

    CSHELPER.EXE is not a virus nor a trojan. It does not add or alter any files on a computer at all and simply runs as a

    background service for the more efficient interaction between ArtistScope software components.

    Should any sites report anything to the contrary you can be assured that they are only trying to draw attention to

    themselves or their suspect product.
