Google Chrome/Chromium browser GC/C was updated to version 10 4 days ago but since release the browser has been patched and improved already ahead of the PWN2own hackers confab. Google is taking the meeting of security researchers seriously that it offers 20,000 dollars to anyone who can hack GC/C with a new vulnerability.
So far the 20,000 is still safe.
I heard that the latest update made speed improvements to the browser. When I updated to Chrome 10, I was skeptical, but I am going to eat my words soon. This version is the fastest I have seen a browser go. I simply enabled prefetching and allow the browser to guess what site it is I am trying to reach. It may not be for everyone. A little annoying at first but I can see this feature as standard in browsers one day. If you allow the browser to remember your browsing history and bookmarks, you might just get that creepy situation when your browser knows and giving you suggestions on sites to go to.
