I may celebrated a bit too soon. I have this issue with chrome with some regularity. Firefox seems to be fine so far though. I know that the issue has been mentioned in other threads (a couple months ago), but I haven't seen any reliable solution for chrome so I wanted to repost this since a new version of Watir has recently been released.
