Since its launch a year ago, Google Chrome has taken the world wide web by storm with its blazing fast page-rendering speeds. It is noticeably quicker than Mozilla Firefox or Apple Safari, and leaves Internet Explorer (IE) seem sluggish at best.
A few months ago, they released an add-on called Google Chrome Frame, which basically took over Internet Explorer’s page-rendering capabilities. In a nutshell, Chrome Frame has all the speed improvements of Google Chrome fit into IE. Microsoft was obviously not pleased with this development, and warned users that installing Chrome Frame would leave a serious security exploit open for hackers. Google initially declined this, but then confirmed the same last week, when they announced a new version of Chrome Frame, which patched the said security hole.
