Comment:
Seems to be a Product string used in Windows NT (please confirm). Compile dates of the samples listed below range from 2001 to 2009. This product string should not appear in system files of newer Windows versions (2000+). 
 
Tested against:
Windows 2003
Windows 2008
Windows XP
Windows 7

Do not use the "pe" module in productive environments yet.
