I got frustrated and uninstalled it and went back to IE and they got sarcastic: "Was it something we said?" Then this morning I discovered someone had hacked into my PC and deleted files. Boy, they sure get sore when you uninstall. I’m a computer illiterate who should have waited and not downloaded Chrome yesterday!!

It is for these reasons and also lack of Adblock that I finally uninstalled Chrome today. Oh, one more reason you left out: Google Updater. I don\'t like it. It\'s a sneaky program and I even unistalled the Google Toolbar for IE just to get rid of it. I never use IE anyway :) Good points.

Security advances are always great news, even though I don't use IE on a regular basis. Judging from the URL of your name, I assume you work on the IE team? @Rose - Thanks for the thought. Chrome is going to be great in, say, 6 months, but not until they fix these basic things. @Dean – No, I have not. I am glad to hear that IE is implementing such a protection, though.
