Hi,

I tried downloading and installing Chrome on a Windows XP machine from
within firefox.
The interesting point is that it seems to bypass the "save to folder
X" and the "run are you sure" dialog boxes that firefox normally
produces. So, simply clicking on the google web site to download
Chrome also installs Chrome without me saying OK.

Has anyone else found this?
Seems like a good virus vector to me.

Kind Regards

James
