    Google chrome is a web browser, if you dont use it , then its safe to delete. Lightscribe is software for your DVD writer so it can burn lables on certain discs, I would leave this on the computer.

    I'm amiss as to why you have not heard of Chrome...

    Chrome browser will be good to use and the options are like IE. It loads dynamic contents faster than IE.

    I used Chrome instead of ie. I find it is much faster than ie. Especially when you have several tabs running. My computer grinds to a stand still with ie but with chrome just keeps plodding on.
