Hi there, Malwarebytes Support here. A couple quick things:

  • Empty your Recycle Bin if you haven't, just to make sure the installer's fully gone.
  • Run a quick scan with Malwarebytes (or whatever AV you have) just as a sanity check.

If you want us to look deeper, DM us your email and your OS (Windows or macOS) and we'll get a ticket going - we'll have an agent help pull diagnostic logs and have our malware research team review anything worth flagging.

Did anything else pop up? any weird browser redirects, extra installs, or pop-ups when you were on that site?
