Download

I downloaded yesterday.
It's really clean and fast.
I really liked it.

I guess that Apple knows how to make a browser for Windows better than Microsoft itself.

I think that browsers are more like a "user choice" than a "how faster or better is it".
But it's pretty good and fast.

Anyway, can you post a link to Chromium?
All I find is Chrome.

Compared to chrome its slow and clunky but more feature complete.
Still Firefox all the way for me.

I believe you have to set it up yourself after opening. A dropdown menu on the far right enables you to show the normal file menu bar etc, and via options you can add "home" "new tab" type buttons to the menu bars. You can import all your bookmarks from the various browsers.

I imported all my Opera bookmarks as HTML, having already saved them in that form as backup.

I'm working from memory here as it's a while since I tried it.

Okay then! Here's Chromium: http://build.chromium.org/buildbot/snapsho...rel-xp/?C=M;O=D

You can download the latest build of Chromium from there. By the way, here's the link to an updater for Chromium: http://dirhael.dcmembers.com/cnu/ No viruses or spyware, I checked with Avira.

I've just installed it under Returnil, and I get to a similar page, but you are missing the menu bars completely.



Can you get any right click menus appearing if you try along the top of the page?

And come on you Safari guys posting here. How does aqua get this thing showing normal browser stuff?

I'll play around with it and get back to you if you don't get something constructive from the others.

Chromium is the open source project behind Google Chrome, and it has it's own browser that is exactly like Chrome, but better. I don't think it installs any of Google's crap stuff like it's silent updater when you install Chromium (because you have to update Chromium manually, or you can use the little tool I listed below). Chromium is also always ahead of Chrome with releases (bug fixes, new features etc. etc.), because Chromium usually gets updated every few hours, while Chrome gets updated every few weeks. So, to sum it all up: Chromium is better than Chrome in every way.

I'm also a very happy user of Chromium. It's fast, stable, and with the Ad-Sweep userscript from www.adsweep.org, I can also block ads.

So... If you want to give Chromium a try, download the latest version from this link: http://build.chromiu...rel-xp/?C=M;O=D There are different builds of it like a zip version etc. If you want to install it, download the file that's called "mini_installer.exe".

If you want to keep Chromium updated download this little (and great) utility from this website: http://dirhael.dcmembers.com/cnu/ It's a zip file so no installation needed. Checked it at VirusTotal so no problems!

Well, this has been a lot of typing, but hope you found this useful. I'm a permanent user of Chromium!

Does the same thing happen if you close it down and then open it again?

[aqua]

yes it does the same thing..i uninstalled already...but still don't know why this problem.
