They've done the same on OSX. There's an app "eBook Library Launcher". If you kill it it relaunches itself, and it's not in any of the StartupItems folder.
Sony have installed it as a system level driver.. and they've borked even that up - they put spaces in its label so you can't control it with launchctl.
To remove the parasite, type:
sudo rm /Library/LaunchAgents/com.sony.eBookLibrary.eBLLauncher.plist
Then reboot.
