Never selected this extension; not sure how it even attached itself to my extension folder and made itself my home page. That is beyond, extremely concerning. If the developer can please explain how that may have happened, or if I am misunderstanding chromes process (this extension is pre-set, the if the developer may possibly educate me so that I may have a better understanding.
