I completed on the things to try from Chrome forum page - ran 3different malware/virus programs and WOW did I have some mess to delete -- some NASTY COOKIES --- nothing serious -- last night did a through clean of the laptop and saw Chrome cache had almost 500 items there and I clean that every 2days -- after all this crap still slower than any thing but not by Google page - and nothing else besides Facebook on Chrome -- Really tired of it going to OPERA !
