You probably have Spin Doctor installed. I have seen this message several times 
myself, but I haven't seen it ever since I had the latest copies of Spin Doctor 
installed as a result of purchasing a couple of recent software bundles.

There is an explanation at

<http://www.schollnick.net/wordpress/2009/12/cdsdaudiocapturesupport-kext-file-was-installed-improperly-and-cannot-be-used/>

To summarise,

This error message is there because you have a copy of Spin Doctor loaded on 
your computer.  No, this doesn’t mean that you have a gentlemen in a brown 
coat, breakdancing in your computer…  I mean the Roxio software, that is 
suppose to assist with capturing digital audio.

This message will appear at various times, whether or not Spin Doctor is 
running. To put an end to it, update to the latest version of Spin Doctor. Then 
launch Spin Doctor and select “Install Audio Capture Support” from the CD Spin 
Doctor menu. This updates the kext file (located in the 
/System/Library/Extensions folder) to a version that is compatible with Snow 
Leopard.

The kext file itself is required if you want to use CD Spin Doctor’s “Audio 
Music Capture” option. This allows you to “instantly” start recording whatever 
audio is currently playing on your Mac.
