Secret World surprise!

I full re-booted this laptop this afternoon and,
Xfire downloaded an update and,
and my browser unexpectedly opened and a "Secret World" site popped up and demanded that I "enter your date of birth"
 
The title and the age-entry boxes were all that showed and no explanation was given. 
 
I eventually tried to open an xfire suppor ticket to complain, but I have version 1.5 xfire and their support system no longer supports version 1.  The page offers to download version 2.
 
I had never heard of the Secret World game site and the demand for my age really had me thinking that this was some sort of un-subtle malware and/or advertising for an xxx-site.  I admit to WTFing a few times!
