You can get a more secure version of chrome which has been compiled from the os code to avoid the google issues: http://www.srware.net/en/software_srware_iron_download.php
Please mark me down as being "no one". Chrome handles most of my browsing tasks, because it is much faster than Firefox on my machine.
It's flat lined at less than 1% market share. http://marketshare.hitslink.com/report.aspx?qprid=1&qpcustom=Chrome
I'm using iron, the recompiled chrome as my backup browser instead of ie. I still prefer firefox for normal browsing because of the advert free and undistorted browsing but iron/chrome is very fast to load and use.
