Me too. I almost never have an issue with it, it's clean, fast, and (at least for my uses) very intuitive. In fact, the only issue is its popup blocker sometimes entirely blocks popups that I wanted and initiated, but in the rare occasion this happens it's easy to get around.

Another benefit: It's protected me twice from entering websites from Google search results that ended up having malware. I am not very careful about which links I click on, yet haven't needed to remove a virus in a long time. Considering the rising number of trojan infections nowadays, I'd say that's impressive.

Might want to give ChromePlus a trial run - one can say it is Google Browser without the "looking over my shoulder" type of behaviour
