From www.answersthatwork.com:
This task loads the MSN Queue Manager and is installed when you install MSN Explorer or MSN Messenger. LOADQM gobbles up system resources and appears on most end-users’ Task Lists who come to us complaining of low System & User Resources or very slow, "crawling", PCs. In October 2002 this is still one of the worst behaved Microsoft programs !
Recommendation : Disable immediately, or Delete using Startup Manager.
