Malware: Chrome Browser-Update

Finally some direction. I believe I found what the problem is but still can't seem to get rid off it. Using a malware scanner called Superantispyware, I found this:

See the Windows_CHROMEUPDATE...

I removed that through this tool's help, I also went to the Programdata folder and removed the optimizer folder. As soon as I relaunch the Chrome, the folder appears again. The folder has a text logfile which I attach. Basically every time I launch chrome, the folder appears. However, it is only the log file for now, will probably get filled with the chrome update soon enough. Why is it keep on appearing despite I delete it?

Any idea?

This is the initial chrome update warning dialog:
