Sounds like you've installed a rogue AV application by that name. These type of programs run an animation that purport to show that your system is infected with a number of viruses which it then offers to 'remove' for you for a fee.

However, what the virus writers are really after are your credit card details so that they can go on a spending spree at your expense. If you paid up, you can seek reimbursement from the credit card company citing that you were duped into paying for malware.

Instructions here on how to remove it from your system: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/virus-removal/remove-win-7-antispyware-2011


Please visit the Plugins Check page and update where necessary. Outdated plugins are a security risk which allow infections like the one you have on your system.
