hi trish hope your well I have chrome and its brilliant it runs rings around I E but you keep that too so you have a choice once you download it run through the tutorials theyre good I think one of the best features is that you open every page as a tab and if anything happens you only loose that page and not the whole browser or session I would highly recomend it------ This thread is Archived ------
I hate new software. Wish I was still running DOS.

I like that yyou could only lose the one page, i am currently losing everything when i close something i have been looking at. How do you find this. Just type in Google Chrome? And what are the problems with it? Thanks

You can right click and add to favourites or I save lots as shortcuts then put them in various folders
It came onscreen when I opened Google this morning but you could just google it yes

Hmmmm, I just read that link Conrad, seems I may have a bit more searching to do - I can only think though that as google itself is so ace (imo of course) that this glitch may well be being discussed in a more positive light elsewhere - i will search I guess

Theres often these issues with new applications I guess, stuff will work perfect for one person/computer and give endless probs on another - they're as tricky as people
I just found google own page realting to chrome
it seems there are problems realtive to the anti virus I use so maybe I will leave it a week or three to see how things develop - or i may even just give it a try to just see if it works - dunno, will read a bit more first I guess.........

Powersoft made PS-DOS but the name didn't go over. "TRS-80s rule!"
or they use to.

It's a great security soft, I find it better then even some sharewares, it has almost all features of modern anti-virus soft and a kinda small network shield))) Suggest it to all
Personally I use Opera as my browser, cause it's less bugz)

My son installed it for me about an hour ago so I'm still getting used to it. It's a case of so far so good. I'm not much good at technical stuff so I tend to rely on my 14 year old or 1 of the managers at work to help with anything to do with the computor. The only thing I need to sort out now is our printer and neither of them can figure it out. Seems that Google Chrome is a doddle compared to that
