But just how many of theses Chrome users are forced installs? Chrome is packaged with just about everything now including Avast. At least Mozilla does not shove Firefox down your throat.

Not forced as such, people will install programs without even paying attention and won't see what they are agreeing to install. I agree chrome is shoved infront of our faces too much.

I am one of 'em.

I am one of them too. If "Chrome is forced down our throats" then what does that make IE?!

[Dieselman]

IE is made by Microsoft and comes with Windows. Its pre-installed. Its not forced down your throat when you simply updated your Flash Player. Thats like saying Safari is forced on Mac users.

I cannot go back to IE. It is not simply because I use Chrome most of the time. I literally cannot install IE on my PC, or I should say, I cannot get the IE browser to work after I attempt the install process.

ZOU.......................I have mentioned to you before. After your severe infection you will always have issues. I have seen the amount of problems you have posted. The only choice you have is to reformat as I have previously mentioned in your infected thread. I thought you were going to get a new pc? Dont blame IE for your problems. Sometimes damage caused by malware is irreversible.
