A virus and nothing more. You cant hide the message that says it downloaded something on my chrome. And you suck at comment bots- i literally saw the exact same comment and the exact same rating right next to each other. And the fact you targeted my school account? My school board will hear about that. And i filed a report on chrome. You guys literally suck at setting up viruses, and it TOTALLY wasnt suspicious when it continuously popped up on my web every time i booted up my chrome book.
