Google Chrome Browser


Recommended Posts

Only works with Java 6 update 10. Not sure why they decided to support a beta plugin.

Many websites use the Java plug-in. Google Chrome requires Java version 6, update 10. Please note that this is currently a beta version and may be more unstable than some previous version of Java. To download this beta version of Java, visit http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/ea.jsp

So far it seems to work well. Mobile Me mail works as good as on Firefox 3, Hotmail on the other hand only works in classic mode.

Looking good for a Beta.

Unfortunately by using WebKit, things like ASP2.0 Menu elements come out all wrong :(

Is there an additional installer with Chrome? chrome_installer.exe http://cache.googlevideo.com/chrome/instal...e_installer.exe installed chrome, but javascript isn't running.

Could be. You probably have to get past the first step in order to get to the next area. If someone could mirror the one installer, that would be a great start.

Hope this helps people with Chrome Download Issues :)

Additional mirrors coming in a minute

That single installer by itself doesn't seem to work. I got chrome running, but nothing really works correctly, javascript simply isn't running.

What I want to do is forward cache.googlevideo.com to a local address to bypass the proxy. I'll then setup the same directory structure to see if it attempts to download anything else. I'm not going to install it directly.

Worked fine on this machine and three of my virtual machines, even managed to get it to run in Wine :D

Working out how to run it on a Mac now, give me like, another half an hour

As for JavaScript, seams to only affect certain machines, Java and Javascript both work fine here

Cool let me know how that goes.

Vegetunks, yeah I am wondering if that installer requests something else or what. I mean, I can't even load neowin....

Alright. Got it installed. Thanks for the mirror.

I didn't run it directly. I just modified the hosts file to point cache.googlevideo.com to 127.0.0.1 then setup the same folder structure with the exe. The setup then downloaded the local exe and installed it without an issue.

Cool let me know how that goes.

Works well. Just posted this using Chrome.

Nope, seams to work fine...

What OS? Maybe you need to run it as Admin in Vista?

See screenshot, Chrome with Neowin.net loaded with a painfully obvious chrome_installer.exe file on the desktop

LOL, yeah and setting Chrome as default makes all htm docts etc. look like that as well, which is quite disturbing on the eye!

Always hated how Windows does that.... You could always replace the icon resources with the firefox/IE resources and refresh the icon cache?

    • Microsoft brings Planner Agent to all Microsoft 365 Copilot users by Ivan Jenic Image: Microsoft Microsoft has announced that Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot is now generally available to all users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license. Planner Agent is the latest addition in the string of AI features that Microsoft is implementing across virtually all of its products. The agent lets you manage tasks through natural language prompts directly inside Microsoft 365 Copilot. You can create and update tasks, check priorities, and get insights about current entries without leaving the chat interface. The general availability release comes with a handful of new additions on top of what was available during the initial rollout. A new plan picker lets you search and filter your plans by name, then update task names, statuses, due dates, or priorities through the agent. There's also a goals bucket now, which lets you group tasks under specific goals. This builds on the Goals view, a feature that was introduced as part of the broader Planner refresh that rolled out earlier. Image: Microsoft | Planner Agent in Microsoft 365 Copilot All AI-generated plans and tasks are created in draft mode by default, so you can review and approve changes before anything goes through. This is actually a thoughtful safety feature, because trusting AI to handle all your tasks without a human in the loop is usually a recipe for disaster. Having tasks initially saved as drafts is the best possible middle ground. Microsoft also says that not all tasks are executed equally. Simple tasks get processed quickly, while more complex ones, like building a plan from a Word, Excel, or PowerPoint file, are handed to a more capable model. Microsoft says this approach delivers the best performance, but it could also help with usage management, as you won't have to waste tokens on performing simple tasks. Planner Agent is available now across Teams, Loop, SharePoint, and other Microsoft 365 apps for anyone on a Microsoft 365 Copilot subscription.
    • To be clear I'm anti trump, the bigger point is why review this game at all?
    • Trillion dollar Microsoft has to reduce spending by hurting more people. Good job Microsoft. Good Job Asha.
    • That's a shame. The big Xbox reset when Phil and Sarah left and then Asha came on and brought a new team of executives, and all the layoffs last year and saying that the ABK merger wouldn't result in redundancies I am surprised they are calling for yet another reset and yet more layoffs.
