Sounds like a virus .. adware or spyware.
Use something proper ..
Like Acesoft Tracks Eraser.
Be VERY VERY wary of running ANY exe file you have been given. As has been said, could easily be a virus or spyware or add a keylogger to your computer.

Most browers have a "clean up" option to remove temporary files. In IE go to Tools then Internet Options then press the Delete button.

Windows also has a Clean Up option to clear out other unwanted files.

DONT run the exe file.
probably already has
If you mean the Freeware program Windows CleanUp by Steven R Gould it is OK. I have V4.5.2 and have been using it for many months with no problem.
This one ..
Admittedly, looks like reliable source.
Just download and use latest version.

I don't know if this will work on AB, it works on email, a light-hearted screen-cleaner...I know you don't clean your monitor's screen very often and it is nearly impossible to do the inside, so this is my present to you
