No, just wondered why that showed up suddenly. Probably a quarantined file.

everything is good otherwise?

Malwarebytes' should not be auto starting. It is a scanner program. No reason for it to start automatically. Also AVG Anti-spy is no longer in use really unless you have the PAID version of AVG8. I would uninstall it. MBA-M works better anyway. You also will need to either update to AVG 8 Free or pick another antivirus program as AVG7 expires in December and will no longer be updateable.
You need to update your java, yours is out of date. Current version is 6 update 10.
Go HERE and download the Offline Install and save it to the desktop so you can find it easily.
Next go to Add/Remove and Uninstall ALL old versions of Java showing there. Once all are uninstalled then go to the desktop and double click that Java install icon there. The newest version will then install. Once the install is complete then go back to that download link and on the right side of the page you will see Verify Now. Click that to verify that the install was successful.
You also need to set a new and clean Restore point. Right Click My Computer. Choose Properties. When Properties opens click the System Restore tab. Place a check mark in Turn off system restore. You will get a message that you are turning it off. Click ok. System Restore will shut down. Wait a moment and then go back in and Remove that check mark to turn it back on.
