BAD DO NOT INSTALL *FREEKS OUT!* The second time I used it, the browser and mouse developed awful lag, it manipulated the mouse menu so that it didn't work properly; would flash for a split second but not let me use any of the options on the menu, the same with the browsers menus! On the search engine page I was on the curser went super far to the right without stopping! I haven't experienced anything like that since the 90's . Might be malware of some sort or really buggy. Yikes! I did other things to regain control of the browser but will only answer those questions to an actual google support person. (For obvious reasons.) It's really sus. If it turns out to be a mistake then, apologies in advance. But I don't think that's the case.
