Get Chromed.......
Chrome beats the hackers in annual browser bash
2:08PM Monday Mar 23, 2009
Pat Pilcher
The Pwn2Own competition, which is held every year to challenge hackers and security experts to find vulnerabilities in web browsers and mobile devices, has taken its usual share of victims with one surprise survivor during its first day.
Targeted browsers included Microsoft's Internet Explorer 8, Mozilla's Firefox, and Google's Chrome, running on a Sony Vaio notebook running Windows 7 as well as Safari and Firefox on a Macbook running OS X.
After the first day of the Pwn2Own contest, Google's Chrome browser was the only browser left standing. Firefox, Safari, and Internet Explorer, however, all fell to hackers with Safari exploited in mere seconds.
So what makes Chrome so secure? Previous Pwn2Own champion Charlie Miller says that although he did find a security hole in Google's browser, he was unable to exploit it because of Chrome's browser's sandboxing feature (which is a security mechanism that keeps running code isolated using a tightly-controlled set of virtual resources) and Windows 7 security measures which combined to prevented him from exploiting any Chrome weaknesses.
Competition organisers purchase all winning vulnerabilities that are successfully used against browsers, handing them over to affected vendors, and coordinating full public disclosure to ensure all vulnerabilities are secured.

Chrome is so boring, I'm sure it's great for a cell phone but there is no adaptability for power browsing like you have with FireFox. With FireFox I hit a couple keys and it instantly downloads the video I am watching. If I am on an image Intensive page and just want to see the pictures all I have to do is click the Thumb Icon or if it has the ability the Cool Iris icon and I have all the pictures on the page and even linked all lined up for my viewing pleasure.......
I use Google Chrome at work but at home FireFox is my choice....and I agree P-Funk and Prince are both bloated and slow just like Albob.......Coarse edged youth, the irish pendants string from their smiles
not yet plucked as to slacken the seams
and drag down the features of age,
no folds or creases from unkempt wear
eyes of tranquilty, crystalline-beads
no sign of despair in their hair, nor their hearts
but oh they have yet to be experienced and that makes aging so very worth it...ML circa2012

Google Mobile on my Iphone is so awesome, I have used it a million and 1 times it has saved me hours of finger tapping those little keys on the keyboard and I have only had it misinterpret what I said a couple of times, the best feature is that it knows what city I'm in so I don't have to say "in Honolulu, HI" when searching for movies or store hours in my area......
