"OSD.EXE" is part of an On-Screen Display software. Hewlett-Packard, Compaq, and perhaps others use it to display keyboard or multimedia controls on-screen, such as using the volume control buttons on their multimedia keyboard, and seeing the lines on the display, sort of like when you use your TV remote on the TV. Some sound cards also use it. It loads at start-up. (newsgroup)
Note: Any malware can be named anything - so you should check where the files of the running processes are located on your disk. If a "non-Microsoft" .exe file is located in the C:\Windows or C:\Windows\System32 folder, then there is a high risk for a virus, spyware, trojan or worm infection!
