I don't use chrome, but they have the same add-on in FF. It still does not work properly.

I use a few of their extensions. I've got the URL shortener that creates a custom short URL for the page you're on. The best one is the ad-blocker. I haven't seen an ad on the internet in months

The one thing I loved about chrome was the all-in-one search/url bar.

I thought Chrome was too plain too but now I'm so used to it lol. For me it runs better than IE.

Chrome - but for the life of me I can't understand why they don't include a "Print Preview" in it!

I used to use Firefox, but it started to crash and burn on me, so I switched. Turns out that Chrome is also considerably faster.

Buegie · 04-28-2011, 04:11 PM

does anybody know if chrome has a plugin similar to refspoof for FF?

quick question. I just downloaded Chrome onto my new netbook. Will deleting IE from it improve performance or is it not running when it isn't open?

iBoost · 04-28-2011, 06:12 PM

chrome

To my knowledge it shouldn't have any impact when it's not open. I say delete it anyway just to get the lameness of your system for good

NBRider88 · 04-28-2011, 07:04 PM

I'd say keep it just in-case. Some sites still use it to work properly. :-/

It doesn't really take up space either.

Pretty sure there is no way to get rid of IE.
