We also have problems that are only fixed after uninstalling Chrome. Other times (but not recently) it was the Google toolbar that caused problems for me/clients.

The latter is based on the former, but they are different apps (how different, I don't know) "Chromium is actually a lighter Chrome that provides almost the same performance and functionality as Google's tool." http://www.softpedia.com/get/PORTABLE-SOFTWARE/Internet/Browsers/Portable-Go ogle-Chrome-Chromium.shtml David Lum Systems Engineer // NWEATM Office 503.548.5229 // Cell (voice/text) 503.267.9764 From: Guyer, Don [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, September 20, 2012 5:00 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Side effects of Adobe updates I just had to battle the Chrome install when I updated Flash. There was no way to NOT install Chrome (individual update on my laptop). After uninstalling, I had the same symptoms mentioned below. There is a Microsoft "Fix This" one-click solution but, I'd have to Google it again to find it.

I've heard of flyby installs of Chrome and the Ask toolbar, but chromium? that is wicked!

We've found that folks who are blindly accepting Adobe product updates are currently getting Chromium installed, and it's causing problems. During the Chromium install, it sets itself as the default browser, which causes at least two problems: 1) Users were unable to click on links in Outlook 2010 getting "Unable to open this link due to restrictions in this computer? Contact your administrator for help". This fixed it: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310049 2) Users were using IE 7/8/9 to browse to ftp sites, but then were unable to open the site with Windows Explorer. The fix was to export the registry hive at HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/ftp from a working machine and import it to the affected machine. In all cases we have removed Chromium where the users had these problems. There might be other fixes, but these worked for us.
