Default Computer Crashes and "Project1"

Recently, my computer has been acting weird- my open windows have frozen and
crashed, and when I press Ctrl, Alt, and Delete, there is something running
called "Project1" and I don't recall ever installing that.

I believe it is what's causing my computer to crash (possibly malware).

Is there anyway to get rid of this?

Thank you in advance!

It's more than Malware. Looks like more of a virus. For info and removal
instructions you should read this -
