Re: Error Installing Chrome from Google

I had a problem as well.. My firewall was blocking something that was needed with the installation. I removed the program in add or remove programs and re-installed with my firewall off.. ouch.. anyway it worked fine..

There are a few other problems I have heard about too. But when you get it going, I like it... So far I have ditched Internet Explorer because I like google chrome.
