Where did you download it from? Chrome.google.com?
Sometimes those download sites like download.com put little nasty friends in the installers. It is better to get it from the web site developer and not a file repository.

Bull! I was trying to troubleshoot problems I am having with my church’s web site, and they suggested I try Google Chrome. I did. In probing around, I found that there are many checkboxes inChrome settings that Window-Eyes does not identify. They are only checked or unchecked. Next I noticed that Chrome loaded at start-up and Google Chrome was the default browser. No problem, so far. However, Audible Manager told me that I need to close Chromium tab for it to update. I then should press okay. I followed these instructions, but Audible Manager never seemed to update. After a few days, I started getting a virus alert from Esset Smart Security. It was one of their many alerts that one cannot act upon before they leave the screen. Thanks Esset. Then, I noticed that my home page was highjacked. Yes, the title appeared to be the same. However, the number of links was different, and the only edit box I could find was one asking me to enter my home phone number. My next step was to try to remove Google Chrome Packages with Programs and Features in Windows 7 Control Panel. I was graciously informed that I needed to contact my administrator as I didn’t have sufficient authority to remove this. Since I am the administrator, this doesn’t make sense except that Windows has its own scheme of permissions and ownership that would confound a Yale University think tank. Yes, I understand it is generally for the good of the computer user, but its still baffling to figure out and sometimes hard to use without sighted assistance. Suddenly, with a breath of fresh air, I decided to use System Restore. I know you need to be careful or you may actually restore a virus. However, it worked for me. I got rid of the recalcitrant Google Chrome Packages. I got my home page back without the pernicious edit box asking me for my home phone number. Now, please tell me why Google Chrome is so good! Sorry for the long rant, but it hasn’t been a good week on the computer. _______________________________________________ Any views or opinions presented in this email are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of Ai Squared.
