If you want to secure the browser (which is a big vector that is increasing daily)... Grab ForceField and give it a try. Works with IE and Firefox,etc...

There's even a "Private Browser" mode that leaves zero trace of what you do and the sites you visit, etc...

I'm happy to see another browser in the market even if I don't expect it to succeed. Competition is good. But I wonder how many people will think it's faster simply because it's a fresh install (no stale cache or bloated ad-ins). The memory usage for Chrome seems excessive but it seems that is the trend with IE 8 doing the same. Safari (on OS X) is no lightweight either but it seems to use about half of what Chrome is using (in Vista).

Google collects way too much data from the users!
Plus: it's NOT a secure browser.
Risk of getting a virus is also high.
The German government gave out a warning, that's how bad Chrome is.
