I've seen that before, sometimes appears on a web page or in a separate Window (usually when you're oppening a Junk site) the best you can get out of it is a scan and I'm not sure about how real is the virus found (usually it finds at least one) and you can't clear the assumued virus unless you buy the product! An advertising attempt for an Anti-spyware usually less effective than the more famous ones. So your computer isn't at danger (or so I believe) so just close and refuse whatever it shows you and you should be fine.
Hope that helped!
