Comment #16 on issue 1565 by [email protected]: Don't make GoogleUpdate always-resident http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1565
GoogleUpdate.exe is the WORST part of the browser and reason enough for many to refuse to use this otherwise fine browser. I simply HATE googleupdate and it's such a pain to get rid of, yet keeps coming back. I removed it from scheduled tasks, deleted it from startup folder, and finally had to hack the registry entries to stop this crap. If it comes back to life, I will just uninstall the browser permanently! It's very sad that Google has created this VIRUS that infects our computers. The current way virtually guarantees that any professional will disable googleupdate and therefore defeat the purpose for which I assume it was intended. Google: please learn how to manage this simple feature correctly. See Firefox for hints. Heck, for that matter you can even see MSIE for a better way :-) -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
