New issue 19814 by [email protected]: Many words suddently turned into  
search engine keywords
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=19814

This has been reported many times, but we've yet to be able to figure out a
reproduction scenario.

One report: "I clicked on the New Applications->Internet->Google Chrome and
got this silly thing where starting to type an address with g meant search
google, and mondrian meant search mondrian for ondrian"

In all cases, deleting the profile fixes it.
We need someone who is encountering this to do the following diagnostic
steps:

1) back up your profile (~/.config/google-chrome)
2) move it aside, verify the problem is fixed
3) restore it, verify the problem still exists
4) try deleting each of the following files from the profile until the
problem goes away:  Default/Preferences, Default/Web Data, anything else
you're suspicious of if those don't fix it

At that point, if you comment here, we can take a closer look at the bad
file.
