16:24:08 <pa_1794> It appears that SWIron Portable comes preloaded with malware. I assume that this is an anomaly.
16:25:41 <Gizmokid2005> pa_1794: do explain
16:25:51 <pa_1794> It notified me about an extention called gamingwonderland, and this site tells me it is a tracking extention. http://www.shouldiremoveit.com/GamingWonderland-Toolbar-Chrome-Extension-36524-program.aspx
16:26:38 <Gizmokid2005> where did you download SWIron from?
16:27:52 <pa_1794> I used the built in app downloader.
16:28:04 <pa_1794> *for PortableApps.
16:29:04 <pa_1794> I had SWIron remove the extension when it asked me if it could use it.
16:29:31 <Gizmokid2005> did you have an existing installation?
16:29:54 <Gizmokid2005> because I just downloaded Iron Portable v31 from the site and have no such extension
16:30:19 <pa_1794> No. This is a fresh installation of portableapps. It is different, in that I installed it to my desktop instead of a portable device.
16:30:38 <Gizmokid2005> The likeliness is that the extension was installed on the machine
16:30:46 <Gizmokid2005> and tries to manifest itself in any browser that launches
16:30:58 <Gizmokid2005> I can confirm that the download contains no extensions at all.
16:31:14 <pa_1794> I installed skype, and just found a skype click to call addon in my SWIron. Could another app have tried to install it?
16:31:28 <pa_1794> Ok. I'm going to tell my IT guy about it.
16:31:31 <Gizmokid2005> yes.
16:31:44 <Gizmokid2005> likely some other software had "GamingWonderland" extension bundled into it.
16:32:05 <pa_1794> Was it a PortableApps software that has it?
16:32:10 <Gizmokid2005> nope
16:32:20 <Gizmokid2005> Do you have the "Affinity Toolbar" installed by chance?
16:32:26 <pa_1794> Ok. Thanks.
16:32:32 <pa_1794> I never install toolbars.
16:32:49 <Gizmokid2005> alrighty
16:32:57 <Gizmokid2005> I would let your IT guy know then. It was likely packaged with something else
16:33:02 <Gizmokid2005> but definitely didn't come from PortableApps
16:39:57 <pa_1794> It is cool that you are available to chat with. Thanks for the help.
16:40:29 <Gizmokid2005> you're welcome
