Chrome security issue on TL
Sawp,
I switched back to Chrome today from Firefox. I can't take the memory leak and crappy performance anymore. I'm sure in a few days I'll be sick of Chrome and switch back :pinch:
Anyway, so I visited TL just now from my bookmark, which goes directly to browse.php.
No FF means no no-script and no adblock, which kinda sucks. So anyway, when I visit TL tonight, the big red screen security warning came up, it partially hosed my Chrome, and then acrobat reader launched then crashed, or there was a launch attempt or something.
Anyone else experience this or know anything about it? I can't imagine TL doing something like this, but you never know. Maybe it is one of the ads on the page.

Re: Chrome security issue on TL
Are you using FF3, the memory leaks were a problem with 2 but the speed of FF3 is far superior, of course performance is also affected by the add-ons you have loaded, but the 'crappy' performance is not an issue with 3 and it is a far more secure browser.
Re: Chrome security issue on TL
Ya, 3. The memory leaks are a problem with 3 too! Leave it open for 2-3 days and watch the usage soar. Don't get me wrong, I love FF, I just get sick of it sometimes. I'm more interested if anyone has had this TL issue.

nope...... using chrome for a while....... never faced a prob with TL, also I prefer chrome nowadays, My firefox has more than 20 add-ons, so undoubtedly slow :/
Chrome just rocks IMAO. This is too good for their first beta release. Try going from homepage --> login --> then browse

lol well couldn't you just disable the add-ons that are not worth the speed loss? :huh: That of all things shouldn't be a reason to stop using FF..
I myself have never tried Chrome, cause I'm used to and happy with FF3.

I also experienced this at TL. Comodo firewall went crazy with warnings from one of the ads. It tried to access Acrobat reader and it also tried to connect with a very odd looking url.I wish I had the logs so I can say the exact url. Unfortunately, I think this is the Ad company's problem and there probably isnt much TL can do about it.
