Accidentally downloaded Aro 2012

I was trying to download the free version of Malwarebytes, but there was a banner to something called Aro 2012 as well and I must have clicked that as it downloaded to my computer. I did get Malwarebytes on eventually, but I'm just wondering if I need to do anything about Aro 2012. I didn't run it after it had been downloaded, I just pressed cancel, so it doesn't appear on my programs list. I just deleted it. If I downloaded it but didn't actually run it is deleting it all I have to do?

    If it wasn't installed then yes deleting it should be sufficient. It might be worth checking that it isn't listed in Control Panel > Programs and Features, or in CTRL/ALT/DEL > Start Task Manager.

    According to a quck search on Google it's a registry cleaner.

    Thanks, I checked both and it isn't listed in there either.
