It's more than 30%. IE6 is still dominating the IE user-base, which is 75% of all browsers.

I will not use Chrome at all, until that is removed from the ToS.

This "The Services" sound way too much like "The Man." Don't like it.

Looks like Google is removing its license rights to use what you post through Chrome. The License rights in chapter 11 has been change to: You keep your copyrights and all other rights, you already have over the content you send, place or show on or through the services - quicky translated from a danish news paper - http://politiken.dk/tjek/digitalt/internet/article562580.ece

Certainly, this 30% number come from my own stats, from the visitors of websites that my web agency have developed. Such number may ofc fluctuate between the different kinds of audience, region, etc. Smile

They'd shoot themselves in the foot if they offered adblock with it by default. Block google ads with a google browser? Lets hope for 3rd party plugins Smile

I won't be surprised if they disabled the possibility of creating an ad-blocker altogether. One of Google's most serious incomes comes from AdSense.

Block ads ? LOL !

I find it more likely to implement an "ad-enhancer" plugin. A special toolbar/window that will satisfy all your advertisement needs.

The first, is the popular "carpet bomb" vulnerability that still exists within Chrome, as pointed out on our forums by our member matessim. This vulnerability allows malicious websites to drive by download and execute programs on your machine. Our visitors may remember the uproar that this same vulnerability caused for Safari users, and that Apple patched the carpet-bombing issue with Safari v3.1.2. Chrome is vulnerable to this exploit because it is based on the same engine, WebKit 525.13, and Google did not patch or update the engine before releasing the software.

um..
it's open source..
it's trivial to implement adblock by anyone with a few lines of code; check each requested url against ad-database..
if match, return nothing
and even if you can't have it as an addon, a greasemonkey-alike will surely come about and you can script the same functionality with that
it simply can't be patched against

once they put detailed info on addons online, i'm sure it will be one of the very first plugins to appear
i'm happy they focus on the core for now..
the vulnerabilities it was supposedly protected against are funny though

shole, you obviously have no idea how proper ad-blocking works, because it is much more complex to effectively remove ads than just checking with a DB.

Not really complicated. You scan the html-code prior to launching the page and compare it with a blacklist of sites you don't want info from. That is then cut from the code and then the site is displayed.

So the basics is just cutting of eg. <img src="commercial ad">


I also think fisk should be unbanned.

So any one played with the source and added mouse gestures and a plug-in that make every page you type in open in a new tab?

Ran it for a while but switched back to Firefox for now. Chrome might turn out real good in the end but not yet IMO.



Behold his GLORY! Bow for the technical master!
