Never heard of it before a google search would tend to indicate a rogue/fake security application.

I take it that you are getting fake security alerts that your system is infected, etc. ?
If so don't visit any sites it links to.

If you haven't already got this software (freeware), download, install, update and run it and report the findings (it should product a log file).

Don't worry about reported tracking cookies they are a minor issue and not one of security, allow SAS to deal with them though. - See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_cookie.

It is probably this you have http://windowsprotection.net/how-to-remove-safefighter-safe-fighter-removal-guide/
(dont download the recomended removal tool here, it is from PCtools and i guess you must pay for removal)

The closest removal guide i found at Bleeping Computer is this http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/virus-removal/remove-securefighter
and the tools recomended for removal is the same as DavidR has recomended
