Install the plugin and immediately redirect me to a web page to install even more software? Uninstalling this deceptive piece of junk.

Had to use it for an assignment for a class. I used it, told me that Microsoft Edge was out of date. I go to update Microsoft Edge, redownloading it straight from the Microsoft site. Qualys tells me the following: Installed File Version: 130.0.2849.46 Latest File Version: 130.0.2849.46 Also says I have Internet Explorer installed?? I don't XD haha Not great tbh
