[78-L] Google Chrome..totally off topic, but HELP! ^ (David Lennick)

[David Lennick]

Okay, got the answer when I logged on this morning and was asked to "complete 
the Avast upgrade" which I thought I'd done yesterday. Google Chrome DOES ride 
in with it, with the option to make it your default browser or not. I missed 
that in my bleary eyed state yesterday. (I still have to manually open Firefox 
to get other stuff to work. And it wants to update as well but gives you a "No 
thanks, I'll risk it" option.)
