Well. Microsoft sure have left me in a confused state of mind (along with many others). Do I need to say more?
Flaw Found in Google Chrome;
Security Researchers have annouced the first flaw found in the much hyped Chrome browser from Google:
*** Update *** Flaw Demo included.
The issue exists in the way that Chrome behaves with undefined-handlers in chrome.dll version 0.2.149.27.
This crash can occur without any user interaction.
When a Malicious link is visited, that has a 'special' character after an undefined handler, The browser crashes, with a message "Whoa! Google Chrome has crashed. Restart Now?"

There is a demo of the working flaw at the source site.
Due to the Open source nature of the Chrome Browser, and the fact that its from such a prominent company I expect this flaw will be the first of many as coders and researchers alike tear it apart looking for flaws.
