Well, this is an interesting plot twist: has your laptop an integrated key logger? How comes that?

Also: move your coins now. You are already late.
Just some kind of extension on Chrome, records every tap of the keyboard, nothing special. It just looks like Chrome has been left untouched. The whole HDD might be left untouched but it's definitely better to stand on the safe side.

Excuse me for being a bit paranoid, but are you sure the extension doesn't steal your personal data or everything you type on Chrome? At very least, check what kind of permission the extension ask.
I've checked the permissions before, it only logs locally user inputs, they are not sent anywhere, it doesn't have access to anything else.

This sounds like a security risk, is there a reason you've installed some sort of spyware in your browser?
Thinking back to it, I shouldn't have installed such a thing, its sole purpose was to catch someone snooping through my laptop, (I mean in the same household) and have solid proof they did it, since history could be deleted and be done with it.

From what it claims, it doesn't send any data, and it's stored locally, however, I don't see a reason to keep it anymore, nevertheless, it does look like a safety concern.
