wextract_cleanup is a cleanup tool that is included with many programs (i.e. updates from Microsoft) to help clean up temporary or cab files created and used for temporary installation purposes. It installs itself to the registry so it can run from a temporary location when Windows loads. You usually get a message at the end of an install that it wants to do this. After it does its cleanup, the program should clear itself from the registry and not run on subsequent reboots. advpack.dll assists with installs by reading and verifying .INF files.
