I just went back to the USS Jallao site and I still didn’t encounter anything unusual. So.....
KAV is excellent! Why anyone would use Chrome or anything Google is beyond me. Google is our enemy, more so than others!
There must be a plug-in or add-on. Go to the Tool menu and check.
You mean Kaspersky?
KAV is an antivirus program, Chrome is a browser. I am looking for a better browser. Fast like Chrome but I agree I want nothing to do with Google. It is getting to be a large problem Google is biggest kid on the block, Chrome is growing in fast in popularity. And Android smart phones are #1.
So while there are other good search engines to use, what browser for computer and even a harder question what browser for Android phone?
I used FireFox for years but it became buggy, bloated and slow.
This is most likely Google nonsense or one of their flunkies causing trouble.
You mean to find and fix unknown item opening on Task Bar when using Pale Moon? I only use AdBlocker Plus, Ghostery, and NoScript in PaleMoon and disabling them didn't fix problem. I did some searching on this problem and Pale Moon and didn't find answer.
And you checked view/toolbars?
Hey but my AC Adapter just arrived today for my newer laptop with Win 7 and this problem is on my older laptop with Vista. I will find out shortly.
The warning for the other site could be legit for many reasons. I’ve had to fight with a webmaster before over this, she said the same thing, that google is blocking her blog for what she wrote about Obama, it was impossible for me to convince her with the mountain of evidence I provided that indeed malicious code was being served from her site, in this case it was an old vulnerable version of her blogging software that allowed the attacker to alter her pages. In most cases it is disreputable ad agencies that serve anything for a payment, things like Flash and Silverlight are laughably insecure, never host these if you can’t trust the author, the ad agencies don’t care, sometimes the webmasters don’t care because these agencies pay higher.
As for the warnings triggered on FR pages, it seems google has changed the algorithm a bit and now flag pages which link to infected sites. Our mod squad is incredibly attentive to these reports
You want Opera. It has the same high performance engine under the hood as Chrome and possibly a better feature set altogether.
You are referring to right clicking on Task Bar and seeing what tasks are loaded? Not sure I understand.
Thanks Jim I am going to try Opera regularly for few days and see if I can get use to it’s different layout.
Thanks John.
Select “View” then “Toolbars” then see which ones are checked-off or select “Customize”
Can Opera run on windows?
Should have replied “thanks John” not “Jim” lol...read it too fast I guess.
And then I read further back and noticed you already tried it. But yeah, give it some time to grow on you. If you’re intent on researching alternatives, there are only a few engines out there, WebKit and its (Google-backed fork Blink) that power Chrome, Opera and Safari browsers (and many others); Gecko which powers Firefox; and Microsoft’s Trident which powers IE. Keep in mind that the browser is mostly like an auto body, its look-and-feel is independent of its engine, and the choice of engine is limited.
I have Opera on Win 7 64bit and Vista, also had it on XP years ago.
Yeah, www.opera.com
