Ya know, the CEO saw fit to make a public apology for this. There is absolutely ZERO justification to continue ANY bitching and whining at all. Accepting the answer with a heart felt THANK YOU is the ONLY appropriate answer going forward!

Note - 59 vulnerabilities patched does not necessarily mean there are 59 separate updates. Also, the number of updates depends upon what OS you are using and what browser version.

Most of them by default will have the jumper already set to the CS position, which denotes Cable Select. It will detect if it is Master or Slave depending on the position in the lineup of the cable. Assuming it's a dual header cable.

Reply to Google disabling extensions today if not installed through Chrome store. in Personal Computing WinCustomize Forums

In the enterprise environments I have been with, if an app or site does not work with IE ( and that is happening MORE and MORE ) then the fallback is ALWAYS Chrome. Firefox is not permitted to be installed. Yes Monk, the Fox is gurgling a dying breath. Even the latest incarnation is a complete dog compared to Chrome.

This is another reason to continue to use Chrome . There have been malicious unsupported extensions that have hijacked, crippled, and compromised system security. Like anything else, the bad guys have made it harder on those that do the right thing. I for one am grateful that Google has taken this action.
