So...my firefox conked out on me. One of my downloaded add-ons (Annoyingly it wouldn't tell me which one) decided it wanted to screw everything up. So I uninstalled everything and went to reinstall, to find firefox's website also wanted to be a pain.
In a moment of curiosity, I tried out Google Chrome. I'm on it now, and I must admit I'm mildy impressed. Anyone else used it, or have any opinions upon it?

I used it some time ago. Thought it was really nice because sites seemed to load faster and there was a site index of sorts upon the first page loading (showed the most visited pages).
Only downside at the time was that it wouldn't load certain java applets or scripts - that's why I uninstalled.

I used it for some time, but I had the same problems as Cosmic, and opted for Firefox instead.

I noodled about with Chrome, but then I upgraded to Windows 7 and I didn't want to hack around to get it to work and haven't used it since.

Punctuation is your friend. Really it is! Not like grammar, that asshole will just put you into a false sense of security and then BAM!! it will hit you with an exception!

Windows 7 is out? Or you playing with the beta?
Also, one of my concerns about Chrome is the security quality. I make credit card payments online, and my confidence/trust in Chrome's security is wary.

Firefox is the least secure browser. They just are the only ones that tell you what the security flaws are.
