    Hi Meepster, Just downloaded the latest on Filehippo, using it now.Seems a lot faster than others.Version 14 I think.I,ll give it a whirl, see how it goes.Thanks to everyone for advice, gratefully received:j

    The current stable channel is 13.0.782.107

    The only version 14 is the Chrome dev channel, which is version 14.0.835.18
    If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, we have at least to consider the possibility that we have a small aquatic bird of the family anatidae on our hands

    You'll be much better off with v13 for now, and it should actually be quicker than v14 as there have been a couple of reported issues with it.

    If you need any help with any features of Chrome, just give me a shout :)

    You wont see much of a difference on normal browsing, issues seem to be when you try to load a site which uses flash, seems to be a bit groggy...

    Hi, which version chrome do you use? I have FF set up as my default browser instead of IE8+aol.s own.I don,t surf much, hardly ever watch videos/youtube/etc.I download papers and general web searching, information etc.quite a light user really.on here most of the time.

    12.0.742.122 - But I update as and when. No add ons (unless required for flash etc.

    Give it a try? You can always remove if it is't for you?
