Subject:Any Chrome users here? Adobe hosed my browser... From:Gregory P Sweet <gps03 -at- health -dot- state -dot- ny -dot- us> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com> Date:Wed, 10 Feb 2010 15:18:31 -0500
Grasping at straws here and hoping someone has some guidance for me.
I've been using Google Chrome form the past few months for accessing Google
Wave a few other items that I just like better in Chrome.
About two weeks ago, I attempted to watch a video and Adobe Flash player
insisted on being upgraded (again) and when the process started it turns
out that Adobe has now applied the god-forsaken download manager to Flash
player. ADM does not work through our gubmint-strength proxy, and I have
complained about this long and loud to anyone at Adobe who cares to listen
(not many, and I digress). Anyway ADM took Chrome down in a blaze of glory
and ever since Chrome cannot connect to the Internet. It simply fails to
see that I have a proxy and connect to it.
I've attempted every fix I could find via google, & the Chrome forums, and
posted about the issue on Chrome forums to no avail. I've
un-installed/re-installed and adjusted every setting in Chrome I can find,
but nada. Just keeps telling me all pages are unavailable.
Thoughts, musing, possible solutions appreciated,
-Greg
