Re: Google Launch Browser - Chrome

I like it but I prefer to have the tabs at the bottom of the menu bar although I could probably learn to like it and also I can not select our quick style chooser at the bottom of the page, is there another way to select this?

Its OK I found another way to select my style through edit options, still I guess this could be classed as a bug.

I had no problems with flash etc. but using any other spellcheck language than US English gave some quite bizarre results. Did you know that Google should be spelled Goggle......???!!!!!

You don't get viruses from browsers, you get them from dodgy files on dodgy sites, I think your AV just had a false positive moment.

go to the control current page icon on the top right, select encoding and either chose auto detect or utf-8 from the list.
