I have a new Surface Pro 2 running Windows 8, and in the last few days whenever I boot up the unit, I get an application on my screen that purports to be a security system. It is titled "Speed Cleaner" and wants me to install or continue something for the protection of the system. I am unabled to find any reference to the application in the Start menu, or anywhere else in the file system, nor can I find any reference to it using any search engines. I have just run the Miocrosoft security scanner (msert.exe) which came up empty, but having experienced a drive-by security infection before, and not being able to locate any real information about this application, I am very leery of running it in any way. Can anybody provide me with any reliable references and/or explanation of this application before I make a wrong, devastating, move?

 

 

Thanks in advance.
