Google Chrome vulnerability

A vulnerability has recently been discovered in Google Chrome that puts users at risk. If you use Chrome, it’s important that you take a couple of minutes to make sure it’s updated to the most current version.

Chrome updates automatically. But if you haven’t restarted Chrome for a while, you may not have the update yet. You can find out if you have the most recent update a couple of ways.

Type (or copy and paste) chrome://settings/help into Chrome’s address bar.

You’ll see this:

If your copy of Chrome is up to date, you’ll see “Google Chrome is up to date (see screenshot with green tick).

If your copy of Chrome is not up-to-date you’ll see a notice that Chrome is almost up-to-date and you’ll need restart Chrome to update it to the current version. You’ll see LAUNCH link on the screenshot.

You can also click the 3 vertical dot icon at the top right in Chrome, and in the drop-down menu click “Help”, “About Google Chrome”.

You can also tell at a glance if Chrome has an update pending. If you don’t see the 3 vertical dots but see a colored icon instead, you know you have an update pending. The color of the icon matters:

Green means that an update has been available for 2 daysOrange means that an update has been available for 4 daysRed means that an update has been available for 7 days

It’s important that you make sure your Chrome browser is up to date. Check Chrome right now. If it’s not up to date, it only takes  a minute or two to update it.

 

 

Good to Know Suze.

 

I have recently started using Chrome -Used Firefox since it first came out.

I have used computers since the 1970's but of course Windows didnt exist prior to 1996 or thereabouts. Old system was MOSDOS. 

 

But unfortunately Firefox has become led by Left wing operated anything - no longer giving the user a choice. Cant have programs they dont like etc. I love Reminder Fox and Mask Me - no longer able to have these - so have to have older version which is naggging continally to update and a couple of times has updated itself meaningv have to uninstall etc and reinstall older version and all the add ons and extensions I am familiar with. 

Chrome can have Mask me which is good prgram as remembers all logons etc. Biut not Reminder Fox.

 

W10 is another example. They - MS -  dicide what you can have - when you pay for the computer and the Operating system - or did prior to W10 but they charge for it now anyway.

Bit cheeky but then the Left are. 

In government they punish the majority for the few. 

IE If you use a credit card for Tatt Lotto - they charge you around $10 in various fines and fees for gambling. As I found out - forgot to use B Pay.

And remember BEX - took it out of local corner store in 80's and only Chemists sell it and the cost went up too - and it vanished in the end. 

Likewise Panadeine tabs with 8mg or 15 mg of Codeine  first OTC second pharmacy only. 

Now because they found Tassie used a lot of Codeine - excuse to take it off the market and make it visit to GP for a script. DUH Tassie has the oldest number of elderly in Australia - of course they needed pain meds and OTC ir Pharmacy only better than having to trudge off to a GP wait for hour or so , and then back to chemist like now.

And when I was in the chemost oin Feb 1 - there was Maxigesic - $16 a pop. as strongest OTC seemingly or so I was told. Huge Ads on counter etc.

I wont have a bar of the active ingredient. Ibuprophen as it was considered by the Medical Assoc too dangerous to be on supermarket shevles. Still there though. And now many will take it instead of going to GP etc. Cant blame them either. But not aware of the danger this is said to be. 

But just another example. And IMHO the Left who plan for chaos and UN to step in when we cry out for restoring Law & Order and- are winning...............

New book out called The Left is destroying Australia by an academic amazingly so not all are brainwashed. And media reported it - well ABC Virginia Triolli was scathing - but then she is a raging Leftie. So many in the midia are!

Only a few - not - Andrew Bolt is one and why he is demonized of course. 

 

Thanks for the info about

"Chrome can have Mask me which is good prgram as remembers all logons"

will try that :)
