Crome might take a few attempts to install the flash plugin but it works now

Re: Google Launch Browser - Chrome

I got flash working too, so with that I'm using it as default browser now. Submitted a few bug reports, such as the text formatting bar has disappeared when selling an item on Ebay, and the buttons on the video player on the ITV website don't work.

Downloaded chrome which is working well for me. Had to download flash again but so impressed by the speed and ability to drag tabs to create new windows

Re: Google Launch Browser - Chrome

I am gonna try it tonight, i like that each tab is run as a seperate process to prevent browser crash. I read that in today's daily news in NYC. If you guys like it they must have done something right.

Re: Google Launch Browser - Chrome

side by side with some corporate web apps we use chrome seems to beat my other browsers with ease in terms of speed loading java based tools.

Had a few compatibility issues with citrix applications but all in all Im very impressed with this public release. Will be watching with interest the support and development aspect.

Have even switched to running the web apps which are compatible so far from within chrome as its just plain faster

Re: Google Launch Browser - Chrome

I like Chrome and want to use it more. But two things:

1. since its open source Im assuming that someone will sooner or later compile a 64-bit version,
2. I want to relocate the cache and profile files to a hard disc that I have set up for browser caches.

Re: Google Launch Browser - Chrome

Is anyone else having a problem with the taskbar when using chrome?

With chrome open the taskbar that is hidden will not appear when clicked as normal?

If I minimize chrome, it will show?
