so my fav browser has started to zitz on me, it's freezing up, not going to addresses

you can close the browser and launch it again but that does nothing

then you launch task manager and take a look, there at least 3 and mostly 4 chromes still running even though you only launched one

when you kill all those instances chrome will run fine for another ten minutes or so, until it self launches a few more instances of itself (they are launched invisible, can't see them anywhere but task manager)

it looks like this is reported on chrome but nobody is comming up with anything but "update flash" or "update java" which did nothing for me

anyone know of a fix for this?

I have been noticing quite a bit of issues with chrome as well; not just freezing, but also not working with facebook. I went back to Safari till it gets worked out.

I have gone back to my original favorite (Firefox) because of the issues Chrome seems to be having the past few months. Every version of it I try have loading issues, freezing issues, etc etc.

I haven't seen a Chrome freezing issue in ... perhaps ever really. I've had tabs crash, but I am running Dev ... it's to be expected. What release are you guys running that your having so many issues (stable, beta, dev) ?

I must admit I'm ping-ponging between firefox and opera these days. Chrome just feels very slow, sluggish and unstable.

I'm looking forward to Opera 12. Its hardware acceleration seems to be comparable to IE9 on my PC and I've always loved that I can tell opera that if a download is a certain mime type to always save it to X folder instead of asking where to put it.

Ditto, gave up on IE then Chrome. Some websites (TV Guide site was the worst) seem to lock up the browsers, ultra slow and/or no response, then it's a wrestling match to shut it down. Never could find a resolution. Problems starts in ~ Aug 2010, just kept getting worse.

Using Opera (favorite) and Firefox (also seems problem free. just lie the look and feel of Opera better) on all my PC's.

Why two? Each is set for up for a different set of default accounts.
