I just wonder, Spy sweeper was discontinued in 2012. Have you installed their SecureAnywhere Antivirus. and this is part of that OR is it an old installation. If so if they don't update the virusdatabase you have better uninstall it and install a newer one.

If it installed itself in TB you can deactivate it in "add-ons" If you want to uninstall it, use something that scans your registry for leftovers, I personly use Iobits Uninstaller (link opens their productpage)
