[Strike]

I have had it for ages now and its the only browser i can manage but when i lat opened it i got network error 138 saying its possibly blocked in firewall and i looked at how to fix i have windows firewall and i cant find the settings to fix it what cAn i do?

[Nity]

Type in about:flags and see if there are any settings that are not suppose to be on.

Is this on the firewall?

[Nity]

No, but it influences the behavior of chrome which interacts with the firewall.

Use a different browser either firefox or safari.

Ok where would i put it

I am using firefox atm but it slow and stops responding loads and i like google chromes size of screen. You can see rather. Than having loads if banners

[0zzy]

Use safari then, its much faster than ff and it is very similar in screen size to chrome. Although you can remove the tabs and things on the ff browser... So that is a silly reason not to use it :P

You can also try to uninstall it and then reinstall it. Or if you're comfortable enough, go to the chrome folder in application settings and delete your user, that way it starts fresh. You would lose you password and cookies though.

tryed reinsatlling then installing but no worky

If you need to get to the firewall in Windows follow this:

If you have Windows XP Go to start, control pannel, system security, and then there should be something in there for a firewall.

If you have Vista or 7, then just go to the control pannel and up top in the search bar, type Firewall or something and you should get some results.

It could also be a proxy issue for some reason...
