This programme often gets dropped into systems when listening to music or even searching. It's a Trojan get it out of your system but first you need to stop it from starting get Windows Start up inspector it's free and can help you choose what you want to start when you switch on.
once you have stopped it starting go to search from your start menu and search for it and then don't just delete it shred it as it does leave a ghost otherwise.
