How to remove Mac Speedup Pro?

Have been infected with Mac Speedup Pro. There is an icon for Mac Speedup Pro in my launch pad now, and is also on my task bar. I have been receiving daily pop-ups. After searching for solutions, it was suggested that I go to Apple Support. Logged in here.

Is there a solution, and how do I go about removing it?
