If gwx is already installed you can just delete the .bin, you won't need it.

Let me guess - you're running avast! Antivirus?

If so, that thing reports more false positives than it does positives! (OK I exaggerate a little, but it is well known for false positives - just google to see what I mean. )

It does report more than its fair share but it has found some that other's have failed. Same thing happens with the OLC download too.
