    I've read in another forum that Google Chrome is a "spyware laden browser".
    In checking that out, I found this http://www.aqlsoft.com/chrome-privacy-protector/
    & would like to know if it is safe to use it?
    Since I surf news sites & use adblock plus & WOT on ALL my browsers, how safe is Google Chrome & can I make it safer or just remove it & use a different browser ? TIA :)

    "I've read in another forum that Google Chrome is a "spyware laden browser".

    What proof did they provide to backup that statement?

    Well, I'm guessing since no reply/response in 4 days means GC is ok? :confused:
    I don't care if they track my news website surfing, I'd still like to know if the link in my first post is ok & safe to use. Thanks.:)
