Task Manager won't help you identify what component of Oracle software this process is running. If you have tlist.exe (from microsoft.com), type tlist -t under DOS to identify its parent-child relationship. tlist <pid> to look at the current working directory and command line.

you can tell what process it actually is. tlist -s lists services associated with processes (some of these associations are not shown in tlist <pid>).

Alternatively, use Process Explorer (from sysinternals.com), which also tells you what files the process holds open. Interesting files are usually log files.
