Its spyware from DivX (free stuff) and its from Gator. Adaware might get it, but Spybot - Search and Destroy definately will. Not sure if turning it off stops the DivX software from running though.

You can set it to show only once a day and if that still annoys you, uninstall it and go with the free version instead.
