Getting adware warnings from Antivirus programs. Uninstall.

I use Ebay on a semi-regular basis, only not so much on PC simply because my smartphone is faster and more convenient. This app is not made by eBay, and therefore unlikely to be as secure, or updated and maintained by eBay as well. I have removed and disabled this app several times before so why does it keep appearing when I start chrome? I don't like it when any rogue program has more control over my device than I do, so please, do us all a favor and remove this 3rd party crapp and make eBay crawl out of the shadows to handle their own business!
