Well, used wrong terms for that, that's not really a driver, that's a COM server. If you go to Microchip directory and then MPLAB IDE/PicKit2 you'll see the dll. If you try to register or unregister it with RegSvr32 many times it gives an error - so not sure if during the installation what's going on but my guess it that it tries to register but fails for some reason and retries and retries and retries... It's just a guess but could be something else, never been interested to look into this, just noticed this behaviour.
