To get to know who may have installed it on your computer just look up what information is in client.cfg file and then go for uninstall.
If it is a GUI client then look for the uninstall option (add/remove programs) under control panel.

Note: More than 365 days is not by any ordinary means as suddenly.

I'll bet that more than 365 days ago, you installed some application from a questionable site (maybe one that said it would unlock some other application) and instead of hacking the other application's copy protection, it installed a Trojan.

Well, someone did a fah install, or got a trojan, but we shouldn't infer who might have done that.

Please post that client.cfg info here, and then consult the Uninstall FAQ.
