[notepad.exe error]

Question: notepad.exe - what is notepad.exe process removal ?

I have not noticed 'notepad.exe' showing in my Task Manager, under the Tab "process" header before on my computer,I noticed the 'notepad' just now and I am a bit concerned and so I want to know what this 'notepad' does and how to remove the 'notepad.exe' from my computer ? Also I want to know whether it is a system process or user process and Is it because of some error in any program exe, virus or worm? Please tell me how this file notepad.exe showed up and do I need to remove this file ? And is Removal process easy?
