   Re: Google Chrome Browser

   In a message on 06-21-18 Ed Vance said to All:   
      
   GM Ed or should I say GN when your msg is dated 0:19,   
      
   EV> Avast has a Tab selection that checks (some) program I use to see if   
   EV> their Version is up-to-date.   
      
   So has AVG and many other programs.   
      
   EV> When I see the Results there is always a Premarked Box to make   
   EV> Google Chrome the default Browser.   
      
   The same holds true for Opera also, and once you have set it to be   
   default, there's no way out. I had not observed the box when installing   
   that said it would be the default browser. To get away I had to delete   
   the whole shit and re-install it.   
      
   Out the window flew the nice Speed menu that I had created.   
      
   EV> Because I see this 'suggestion' from Avast to begin using the Chrome   
   EV> Browser often enough, I have began wondering how many readers of   
   EV> this echo use Google's Chrome for their main browser or as an   
   EV> optional browser?   
      
   I have Chrome installed on Windows machines but I use it very seldom.   
      
   Generally I use FFox for FB and most things, but since I noted that I   
   always had to wait for the circular arrow to appear to be able to get   
   the Weather map updated because it always appeared with data from my   
   previous visit, I use Edge because it always starts updated.   
      
   EV> I usually never allow any 'services(?)' from Google unless I can't   
   EV> see what I want to see on the page I'm looking at.   
      
   Neither do I, but since a crash I lost the AVG Secure Search, I have   
   used Google.   
      
   =======================================================================   
      
   Another Note:   
      
   Years ago I told you that neither Mothers nor Fathers day are celebrated   
   the dates you do. Not even the neighboring countries Sweden and Finland   
   celebrate those days on the same date.
