    I am not sure, if its always been there, but last week I notice in my control panel under, uninstall program I have two softwares installed from M.S they are both not in English. It says installed date 2/22/2012 and are 5.3 MB and I got my Asus UX32VD June of 2012. Is this a virus or something? I tried to uninstall it but I got promt in Chinese to uninstall it. Is this something I should worry about or does it come with the PC?

    I have Kaspersky and Malware bytes running and neither detected anything.

    Asus tends to have have an asian language set in their laptops. I don't remember if it's chinese or something else, but I've noticed it was there in regional options. If you had Windows Live Essentials installed at aome pint in time, that would explain those entries. Live Mesh has been killed by Microsoft in favor of their skydrive app, so you can just delete those.
