Who needs Google Chrome and why?
I know a couple, and the guy loads his computer up with many video game sites, and any tool bar, or free offer, that is made to him, he says yes, or OK.
So, I looked at his program list and found a few things that were fine to un-install.
By the way, his system shows only 89% of his drive as being used.
Though the computer is very slow, poor loading pages, etc. He has the same IP as I do.
We got down to Google Chrome. I asked him why he had that and he said because he needed it to use Google dot com. (??)
I told him he did not, and I asked him again why he needed it and I got no answer.
I said that I was going to remove it, and if he wanted it back later on, it is there for him to get.
So, who needs Chrome and why?
Is Chrome to Google, what Bing is to Windows, or MSN?

IE 9.0 isn't a program, it is an Update! o to Control Panel> Programs & Features> Installed Updates and you should see Windows Internet Explorer 9 in the list which you can Uninstall.

I'm getting various "new" (started in recent days) issues with either IE or Windows. I'm getting messages that a site wants to offer me a popup message. Sites that did not do this last week. It seems like IE is suddenly letting popups happen, so I must allow them, or not allow them.
IE is also giving me the "certificate" "secure content" on webpages where it did not last week or so.
It's even doing on one of their own sites which is Hotmail.
So, IE is detecting it's own mail program as not secure.
I like FF except the way it opens a photo, it has to download the file, then a link to click bottom right, and close the download-add-on window.
I've never tried Chrome, maybe I will.
I have IE 9.0 and if I am not mistaken, and I may be, IE 9.0 can not be removed from my system. It's not in my program list.
