This is spyware masquerading as an antivirus program. Your computer
security may not be up to scratch if you have picked this one up.
You will find ways to remove it at these links:

You should also run full scans with whatever antispyware software you
already have---AdAware, Spybot, and Superantispyware are probably the best
of the free ones. Microsoft's Windows Defender also is good. It is
essential that these are regularly updated.
The fact that you have emailed them means that they now have your email
address---which has undoubtedly been sold on to thousands of spammers. This
is how they work. You should ensure that you have good antispam filters in
place, otherwise you may need to change your email address. Hopefully, your
ISP should be able to protect you from spam emails, though some charge
extra for that protection.
