Well, on my system I did a
$ locate procps
and found that procps.sh does not exist here.

I ran
$ dpkg -S /etc/init.d/procps
and learned that the applicable package is procps.

I ran
$ apt-cache policy procps
and learned that I have the stable version 1:3.2.7-11 installed.

You must be running Squeeze.  What is the output of
$ dpkg -S /etc/init.d/procps.sh

If it does not belong to a package, I would rename it to procps.sh.bak and then 
if nothing breaks (including through a reboot) remove it.
