    No problems so far. Like the feature warning of sites that have been infected with malware and can click to window detailing the problem and how recently observed.

    Are you saying there is not a "favorites" or a "bookmarks" button on Google Chrome?

    Me, too. Was told by computer guru that by using Firefox you'll get less spam because most of the spam goes on the most popular servers like AOL and through IE.

    I'm quite happy with Firefox. For those that can't get .pdf's to download through firefox, there is a free add-on called Foxit reader that is wonderful!

    I use Google Chrome because my son bought me a new computer last year when mine crashed and insisted that I use it along with Firefox and Thunderbird. He's my computer guru so I do everything he says. I like it just fine.

    You can bookmark. You just click the little star to the right at the browser bar. You click the tool symbol next to that for other options. There's just not a menu bar visible when you bring Chrome up.

    I've switched all my computers over to Chrome. I think it's a lot faster than IE. There are only a few sites that don't work with Chrome, but most of them are places I only have to access very rarely.
