What the fuck is this new "go photo it" thing that I keep on seeing in the URLs of images that I can't access? And when I try to download it, it's a CRX file that doesn't even work my computer? Please help me, since it's pissing me off.

if you use chrome it should be in the extensions list
just click the spanner and highlight settings extensions should be in the sub-list
FB photozoom is an extension for facebook that zooms in when you hover the courser over a photo

It's not there, for some reason. The only extensions that I have in that list are "1Click Downloader", "Adblock Plus (Beta)", "wxDfast", and "Yontoo", and all four of those are enabled. I'd never even heard of this "FB photozoom" until you told me.

EDIT: Yeah, I just searched it in the Chrome Web Store and I don't even have it added.

Relish in Chaos: Your problem is caused by 1Click Downloader. It's a trojan. Causes redirects to the gophoto.it site.

Delete the extension, and all should be well.

With Firefox, 1 Click is installed when you add the DownThemAll extension. Kill it, and DTA works fine. Actually it works better without it. Much faster.

The site itself lets you perform some very basic photo manipulation, like resize or rotate. It's only useful to people who think that apps like photoshop elements are too complex and difficult to use.

The site seems to employ people to post on forums to claim that it's great. Beware.

I cannot say this too strongly, 1Click Downloader is malware. It takes control of your computer away from you. Worse, it has backdoors that can be exploited by hackers.

Get rid of it.

EDIT: I've seen threads similar to this on several forums. Check the post above mine. This guy posts in every one of them. One post, no more, no less, all the same.

Kaspersky is now treating 1Click Downloader as malware with a rating of 5/5. Beware.
