my computer is incredibly slow, I use google chrome. when I compared the speeds between Internet Explorer (remember when we all used to use that? neither do I.) and Chrome, IE was like 20x slower than Chrome.

second..if i got a slow connetion or computer that goes to a site littered with flash, then i want the browser if loading of the page would take more than 15 sec not to load any flash, sites that has this loading time up to 30 sec on my comp with firefox 3 is TMZ.. I just hate the flash.. and 3 rd-flashcookies should be able to be deleted when closing chrome-which i dont know if it does

hard to do anything in chrome..where is history and where is bookmark page.. so I dont use it.

In my oppinion, THE SCROLLBAR should be displayed only on MouseOver, eventually with a quick fading and still some transparency when fully displayed. The webpage content should stay visually fixed no matter if the scrollbar displays or not.

Please don't mark it as a spam.

I don't know how else I can contact the Chrome Team, so I'm just submitting an idea here by showing the example page.

The scroll bars in Chrome are often unusable for 5-10 seconds after the page loads, very annoying.
