2014-06-02T21:22:40+00:00 I also HAD Kies installed, only today the same notice came up, approx 5 weeks after uninstalling Kies.
Prior to uninstalling, never seen this before. I thought was malware, thanks for the details in this post.
I purchased a HTC M8 One, and now besides Kies, wish I still had a Samsung Phone, The modified software on the device has so many more features that now are missed.
Samsung Wallet, ascending ringtone, scheduled SMS sending, soft keys, home button not next to space button to name a few.

2014-05-22T07:19:21+00:00 We can going on ranting about Samsung for ages (which is fully justified because Kies IS a nightmare) but I think we'll have to agree that Samsung will not take action to improve on this no matter how much we complain - if they wanted to, the would have done dumped Kies and restarted from scratch about 300 version updates age (which is about 1,5 years). So I hate to say, but also my solution is not to buy Samsung android devices anymore, I'm now happy with a Motorola Moto G.
