So i was looking through a bunch of things i don't need and i come upon:
ASPCA TriMini Reminder by We-Care.com
I don't remember ever getting this and was wondering what it is. Is it safe? or should i delete it?

And also, in your link they called it wecarereminder while mines just came up as ASPCA TriMini Reminder by We-Care.com in the control panel where i can uninstall things.
Sorry if I sound paranoid but these few days I have been dealing with some things and a virus is the last thing I want to deal with.

It could have come from a number of sources including being bundled with legitimate freeware programs. Many free applications are financially supported by the inclusion of 'adware' which is usually, though not always optional (via opting in or out).
