It looks to be a false positive. Seems to be a Bing service by Microsoft. I'll throw it in a VM and see what I can find. But you seem to be in the clear.


EDIT: Yes you are 100% safe. It is just a bing service file. Tested in VM/Sandbox. No malicious behavior was taking place. More then likely was using it as an update service.

It's a Bing process file, nothing harmful. But why is it in your startup? Did you install any programs lately?

This is because there's a shitload of malicious downloads hosted on pomf.cat.
