  5. It says in Google groups that the "Software reporter tool" will conflict with Norton internet security, which I'm running.
    It also says that you can remove it in "Windows add remove" settings, but I can't see it there!!!

    Well,, I would run Malware bytes and see what happens.. it could be malware of some sort.

    Check if it's digitally signed by google. If so, it's not malware.

    Not something I'd worry much about. If you're really worried, block it with Windows Firewall from making outgoing connections.

    How do I check if it's digitally signed by Google?
    (ran Malware bytes and it didn't find anything)

  10. Add and Remove Windows Programs is the wrong place because it isn't a Microsoft program. It is Google. Uninstall from the Control Panel/Programs/Uninstall a Program.
