If you want to use Google Chrome but are concerned or have questions about Google's policies for collecting usage data, you might want to give Iron a try. Iron, developed by German software company SRWare is Chrome stripped of all the user ID information that gave the German government cause for concern. - No unique user-ID - No user-specific information is sent to Google - No alternative error messages - Crash information is not sent to Google - No Google updater The installer is in German but the browser itself is in English. Enjoy!
Great browser! Actually a little better than Chrome and well worth a download for fast surfing. However, I downloaded from IRON's own site, as I deemed it to be safer than this torrent.
But the uploader has a nice pink logo saying trusted lol
Nice Torrent Thanks
Nice Torrent Thanks
Oh.. so that's what the nice pink logo says? Well, great than! =)
By the way.. make Iron even better by blocking ads. Here's a how to:
A solution to this for now is
http://www.privoxy.org/
1.) Install Privoxy
2) Click on the Wrench icon in IRON in the upper right corner
3.) Choose options>Under The Hood>Change proxy settings
4.) A windows box pops up, choose LAN settings (at least this is what it's called in Vista)
5.) Check off "Proxy settings" and in the address setting add127.0.0.1 and in the port 8118
6.) If you have the option, you can also check off "Bypass proxy for local settings"
7.) Click "Ok", close Iron and restart it.
