Phisihing and Malware would not be a problem for Chrome,hopefully leveraging Google’s database of websites to make for safe browsing. Neverthless I do have a small problem. check this screenshot of Chrome ,where the pages I was trying to load did manage to load in Firefox pretty fast , but Chrome choked on load.
Additionally the all aspx pages are broken are down. Think we can safely blame Microsoft for this.
