The name of the software, and what it is supposed to be scanning your system for would be helpful. There are various free "spyware/malware" scanners out there, that are very good. www.lavasoftusa.com for AdAware and www.safer-networking.org for Spybot Search and Destroy.

software.hope this will give you a bit more to go on,thanks

I've never heard of it. Do they have a web site?
