I removed three toolbars today & finally found out what hi-speed internet is. I looked at all the toolbars today & thought to myself i don't need all these, as most have the same things that i need or use. I don't know shit about computers, this just happened to speed up my p/c, makes me very happy,LOL,WOW!!

This is why I like the Google chrome browser so much. It's very simplified and stripped down.

I agree with Rob on Google Chrome.

I installed it a month ago and love it. Very fast.

with my fiber internet service with 100 mbps download and upload combined with chrome makes me very happy.

I live in one of the less then 1% of the US population that has fiber internet.

Hard to believe my town in Louisiana was one of the first in the nation to have fios.
Had it for over 2 years.
Someone told me my market was THE very 1st in the US. I have a hard time believing that though.

I actually used to sell verizon fios..it's a great service. I've had Fios since it was available out here in HB, TV service is pretty good (although Sunday ticket and such would be nice) and the internet is awesome.

Even better, SRWare Iron:

SRWare Iron, or simply Iron, is a free and open-source web browser implementation of Chromium which primarily aims to eliminate usage tracking and other privacy-compromising functionality that the Google Chrome browser includes. While Iron does not provide extra privacy compared to Chromium, it does implement some additional features that distinguish it from Google Chrome, such as built-in ad blocking.


Differences from Chrome

The following Google Chrome features are removed or disabled on Iron:

RLZ identifier, an encoded string sent together with all queries to Google or once every 24 hours.

Google search access on startup for users with Google as default search.

A unique ID ("clientID") for identifying the user in logs.

A timestamp of when the browser was installed.

Google-hosted error pages when a server is not present.

Google Updater automatic installation.

DNS pre-fetching, because it could perhaps be used by spammers.

Automatic address bar search suggestions.

Bug tracking system, sends information about crashes or errors.
