I run Firefox with a bunch of add-ins. One of the add-ins is Yoono, which may be the source of this service. Whenever I shut down my PC, I get a message telling me that FilterWP.exe won't close and asking if I want to end it now.

Does anyone know what this executable is and does and whether nuking it (actually, putting it on Manual start) will affect anything else?
