Its version is 3.0.191.0, so if you have 4.0.213.0 installed, running this setup makes nothing. You need to uninstall other version of Chromium before installing this one.</p> <p>This is even not a beta. This is alpha. further we'll make an option to forcibly install the build (into anotjer location, maybe). </p> http://www.roboformchrome.com/topic/google-chrome-support-on-the-way#post-239 Thu, 24 Sep 2009 15:18:35 +0000 Claudiu 239@http://www.roboformchrome.com/ <p>Hi spase, I wanted to ask if you have some sort of debugger for the installer. I use the latest version of Chromium, 4.0.213.0, but when I run the RoboformforChromium exe nothing happens, I see the process showing up in the task manager but no installation wizard or anything. Is there a way to run the installer from the command line with a parameter that stores an installation log?

I'd be lying if I said otherwise. I do and will also use Firefox and may even be forced to use Internet Explorer 8 in special circumstances. I used to use Roboform an awful lot a year ago when I was hooked on entering online contests. I then used IE or Firefox (not sure), and the speed of using Roboform enabled me enter hundreds of contests per day and to win perhaps a thousand dollars worth of prizes over the months. Ultimately I had a bad experience with having to fight to secure a legitimate win. I got peeved over this and got off the contest addiction for good. I tended to be annoyed afterwards when roboform would popup unexpectedly and remind me of the bad experience with that prize they wanted to take from me. I ended up turning it off and later uninstalling it. It only takes me seconds to fill out most forms, so it isn't a huge issue to me now. In the meantime, when I stumbled upon this thread, I was about to download roboform again and to give it another try to see if it still annoys me as it used to, now while using Chrome. As I aaid before, I ended up using Chrome as default because of its speed opening. There was a period of time when Firefox was taking 30 to 35 seconds to open for me and IE was taking 15 or 20. Some personal computer maintenance have helped both of these browsers a lot They're taking about 5 or 6 seconds each tonight, which is much better than it used to be. When I first discovered Chrome, it opened in around 2 seconds on my system, and switching to it was a no brainer. It still pops up almost instantly on my relatively slow P4 system. </p> http://www.roboformchrome.com/topic/roboform-for-google-chrome#post-227 Mon, 31 Aug 2009 16:30:02 +0000 gilbert 227@http://www.roboformchrome.com/ <p>im new in google chrome .. but i come to realize that its best to use firefox as defualt browser ( well as you know firefox includes roboform unlike google chrome), i only use google chrome for using gmail , watching youtube ( cuz i know that youtube is part of google family), it runs faster than the other browser. but i cant live without roboform, i really need it for my job,but i hope roboform will be part of google chrome as soon as possible, and also GC doesnt have google tool bar!!!! </p> http://www.roboformchrome.com/topic/google-chrome-support-on-the-way#post-217 Wed, 26 Aug 2009 01:42:59 +0000 madmack 217@http://www.roboformchrome.com/ <p>thanks for your reply spase.</p> <p>can't wait for that to happen </p> http://www.roboformchrome.com/topic/google-chrome-support-on-the-way#post-216 Tue, 25 Aug 2009 20:07:05 +0000 spase 216@http://www.roboformchrome.com/ <p>Alas, I can't share this build now 'cause this is internal company's build.

I'm glad they found a way to develop a compatible plugin for safari/chrome (they're both based on the same webkit that's why they'll release a version that supports both in the same time).

I have just recently began looking for a password manager/form filler, and it seems that roboform is getting allot of praise. The fact that this website exist is enough argument for me give it a shot. However chrome is my default browser and it is going to remain so, with or without roboform. I hope they get the integration in place with chrome, if they do ill buy it that day. Until that day comes, is there anything out there compatible with chrome that is worth using? </p> http://www.roboformchrome.com/topic/roboform-for-google-chrome#post-156 Sun, 29 Mar 2009 09:30:46 +0000 vedavis 156@http://www.roboformchrome.com/ <p>Face the truth, RoboForm developers. Either form an alliance with Google and get this ported, or Google might develop their own. The Google toolbar is already in place. And it will probably be free. Chrome is becoming a favorite of mine and others. As for my alliance, there is no RoboForm in my future without Chrome support. You left that choice out of the poll, I see. However, I would pay for the ability to have Chrome support. So let's get the ball rolling here. </p> http://www.roboformchrome.com/topic/google-chrome-things-i-like-about-it#post-149 Thu, 19 Mar 2009 16:20:54 +0000 Gigi 149@http://www.roboformchrome.com/ <p>I deem Chrome worthless.</p> <p>Due to the protocol I have in place for myself, and that would be my requirement of using not one but several different browsers on a daily basis. And due to my absolute need to add bookmarks on an almost daily basis, Chrome is an unacceptable browser. People will ask: 'Why use more than one browser?' </p> <p>My answer: 'For the same reason you backup your data on a DVD or online: in case your hard drive fails. All browsers, and I don't care which one we're talking about, will fail on you or hit a wall and stop dead in its tracks. And if you're using your browser for work and school, failures are totally unacceptable, especially if you're right in the middle of working on a critical project. Always have a backup browser ready to go for those occasions when your main browser crashes or slows to a crawl!'</p> <p>IE7 is my main browser. Bookmarks go in there first of all before they go anywhere else. And then they are imported over to Firefox sometimes two or three times a day. In Firefox it's super easy to delete hundreds or thousands of IE7 bookmarks and then import 'em again. Sometimes I do that 2 or 3 times a day. It's super easy, Firefox allows you do it with just a couple of clicks. </p> <p>Chrome, on the other hand, does not allow you to delte IE7's bookmarks! Chrome keeps the imported bookmarks in a folder called, 'Other bookmarks.' But you can't delete those IE7 bookmarks and worse, over the course of days or weeks, you can't add any additional IE7 bookmarks to them. </p> <p>So...if your bookmarks are a big part of your life and you use them for work and school and you place a HIGH priority on saving bookmarks, and you use more than one web browser, I say: Chrome is an inferior browser, I would never recommend Chrome to a person like that. Currently I use IE7 and Firefox, but soon I'll be taking a long look at Maxthon. Maxthon is rated high by C/net. Of course, you can't rely on only one review, but it's a start for people who are looking to add a third browser to their stable.</p> <p>BTW, I'm not one of those Firefox fanboys you find on every street corner, not me. Firefox has their own set of problems that crop up from time to time. Firefox is not a perfect browser. The perfect browser does not exist. That's why whenever I'm online ALWAYS run two different browsers and why I'm looking for a decent third browser.</p> <p>P.S. Yes, you can delete IE7 bookmarks from Chrome, but you have to delte each bookmark one at a time. So if you have 100 or 1000 bookmarks, Chrome forces you to delete each one individually. Of course, that'll take you a few days if not weeks to accomplish something like that! </p> http://www.roboformchrome.com/topic/roboform-for-google-chrome#post-135 Sat, 21 Feb 2009 19:52:39 +0000 johnhouk 135@http://www.roboformchrome.com/ <p>I voted with chrome because it IS my primary browser. I have roboform set to open the links in IE. Its a default IE install. I use this primarily to get my bills paid. Thats it. Any other logins, I check using the EDIT in Roboform, then I type the info. (Usually just my common name and one of a few set passwords I use.) I can't think of any forms that aren't bill, or unemployment related. </p> http://www.roboformchrome.com/topic/roboform-for-google-chrome#post-128 Tue, 03 Feb 2009 20:04:10 +0000 Claudiu 128@http://www.roboformchrome.com/ <p>I don't really think Google gives a *** about RoboForm, that's one problem. However, on the other hand if the Chrome market will increase to the point where the Roboform developers cannot ignore it anymore, they will find a solution. The thing is that with version 2, Chrome introduced a way to use addons in it and I even saw a framework to develop such scripts for Chrome - maybe there's something they could do in this direction to have Roboform compatible with Chrome. Time will tell. </p> http://www.roboformchrome.com/topic/roboform-for-google-chrome#post-126 Tue, 03 Feb 2009 14:53:38 +0000 k2revenue 126@http://www.roboformchrome.com/ <p>I think it would be a "no-brainer" for google to fund the dev process for integrating chrome with Roboform given given the benefits they get from intel about users.

In just 100 days, we have reached more than 10 million active users around the world (on all seven continents, no less) and released 14 updates to the product. We're excited to announce that with today's fifteenth release we are taking off the "beta" label!</p></blockquote> <p>I must admit I wasn't expecting this, given that (at least to me) Google Chrome is still far away from a full featured browser. Indeed the About box of Chrome now says version 1.0.154, but I don't really see what's new beside more stability since their first release. Rumors say that Google rushed into doing so because OEM (hardware vendors) wanted to include Chrome with their systems but couldn't because of the beta label. This get credible if you think that Gmail, a service started many years ago and that has incorporated dozens of features, is still in beta.</p> <p>Anyway, I would be happy if they would finally integrate an extensions engine where users could create 3rd party plugins, just like they mention <a href="http://dev.chromium.org/developers/design-documents/extensions">here</a>. Because that would be a step closer for a Roboform toolbar. </p> http://www.roboformchrome.com/topic/roboform-for-google-chrome#post-92 Sat, 15 Nov 2008 22:46:34 +0000 reck 92@http://www.roboformchrome.com/ <p>At this moment in time I really don't see what the appeal of Chrome is. If it was miles ahead of every other browser in terms of speed then sure there's one thing. But the latest set of results i've seen show that minefield has the faster js engine.</p> <p>Even if Chrome was slightly faster what else has it got going for it? I could name a list as long as my arm of things I would miss moving from ff to Chrome, and i'm not even taking roboform or speed into account here.</p> <p>Maybe in a year or two when Chrome matures it might be able to compete a bit but at the moment I just don't see anything there of interest. </p> http://www.roboformchrome.com/topic/roboform-for-google-chrome#post-91 Sat, 15 Nov 2008 18:00:01 +0000 wrishel 91@http://www.roboformchrome.com/ <p>Although I voted that I would continue to use Browsers where RoboForm works, there is a limit. If another product like RoboForm comes along that does support Chrome, even if it were not as good as RoboForm, I would be off of RoboForm and onto it in an instant.</p> <p>I use enough sites where Chrome is noticeably faster that it would be an easy decision. I also prefer the UI to either IE or FireFox. </p> http://www.roboformchrome.com/topic/roboform-for-google-chrome#post-84 Thu, 23 Oct 2008 18:21:54 +0000 Claudiu 84@http://www.roboformchrome.com/ <p>Hi Broadsword, I'm afraid we don't know more things either. That's the standard message Siber System put since Google Chrome was released, which doesn't say it will not be an integration, but it doesn't say it will be either.</p> <p>So we're waiting, either from Google to do something or until Roboform gets on this new route - hopefully they'll do. One thing I want to see is when Chrome will have much more extensions and 3rd party publishers will start analyzing that, maybe that's a possibility for RoboForm to be added as an extension. </p> http://www.roboformchrome.com/topic/roboform-for-google-chrome#post-83 Thu, 23 Oct 2008 11:04:03 +0000 Broadsword 83@http://www.roboformchrome.com/ <p>I agree with all those who have already posted. Chrome is a no no for me without Roboform.</p> <p>Before I discovered this forum I e-mailed Roboform to find out progress.

I have that option to enable multi-thread disabled because I think it consumes less resources if it's disabled (this was the case on an early release of maxthon2, not sure if it's the same now). </p> <p>Chrome's approach is somehow different because if something goes wrong only one tab crashes (aw snap). </p> http://www.roboformchrome.com/topic/roboform-for-google-chrome#post-50 Thu, 18 Sep 2008 19:44:13 +0000 reck 50@http://www.roboformchrome.com/ <p>"Another advantage of Chrome is the whole each-tab-as-a-process thing, which lets you "kill" a tab if it became unresponsive, much like using an operating system."</p> <p>I think this is pretty standard now in a lot of browsers, not something new with Chrome. For instance in Maxthon go to setup center-&gt;Advanced-&gt;Enable Multi-thread tab support. In firefox I think it's been enabled since version 3, there's no setting to turn it off. Not sure about Opera though but it wouldn't surprise me if it also used different threads/processes for each of its tabs. </p> http://www.roboformchrome.com/topic/roboform-for-google-chrome#post-49 Thu, 18 Sep 2008 17:41:23 +0000 Claudiu 49@http://www.roboformchrome.com/ <p>Thanks for the article. This is an interesting part:</p> <blockquote><p>Mozilla might end up taking some of Chrome's ideas, and perhaps even some of its open-source code, to work into Firefox. Tops on Eich's list: Chrome's running each browser tab as a separate process, an approach designed to prevent a single site, and thus tab, from crashing or locking up the whole browser. </p></blockquote> <p>I'm curious about the 3.1 release too. Another advantage of Chrome is the whole each-tab-as-a-process thing, which lets you "kill" a tab if it became unresponsive, much like using an operating system. </p> http://www.roboformchrome.com/topic/roboform-for-google-chrome#post-46 Thu, 18 Sep 2008 16:26:48 +0000 reck 46@http://www.roboformchrome.com/ <p>Here's an article where it's claimed FF 3.1 javascript engine is around 28% faster than Chromes.</p> <p><a href="http://www.computerworld.com/action/article.do?command=viewArticleBasic&#38;articleId=9114163" rel="nofollow">http://www.computerworld.com/action/article.do?command=viewArticleBasic&#38;articleId=9114163</a></p> <p>Will be interesting to see, based on that article, how FF 3.1 handles pages like Digg compared to Chrome. </p> http://www.roboformchrome.com/topic/roboform-for-google-chrome#post-43 Thu, 18 Sep 2008 11:14:36 +0000 reck 43@http://www.roboformchrome.com/ <p>Well there's no doubt Firefox and Maxthon can be sluggish sometimes. With regard to sites like Digg that use a lot of javascript this may improve in FF with the next update due soon because it contains a new javascript engine that is supposed to be very fast. Just looking down your list of likes. The Incognito window feature is also coming to FF, I think that may be in the next update as well.</p> <p>Maybe when Chrome matures a bit more and has some extra functionality (and roboform support) i'll come back and take a look. But right now there's way to much I'd miss such as super drag and drop, mouse gestures and ad blocking which I can't do without. </p> <p>The ad-blocking issue is an interesting one. Maxthon and FF both have very good ad-blocking capabilities which make surfing a lot more enjoyable. Google's whole business model is based around advertising so blocking ad's would shoot themselves in the foot, maybe they will add selective ad blocking.</p> <p>I'll be keeping an eye on this one. </p> http://www.roboformchrome.com/topic/roboform-for-google-chrome#post-42 Wed, 17 Sep 2008 11:05:41 +0000 Claudiu 42@http://www.roboformchrome.com/ <p>Right now the main thing that makes me like it better than FireFox is its speed on handling certain websites (e.g. digg).

I've not had chance to try Chrome yet but you guys seem excited by it. What is it that makes Chrome better than firefox, is it just a performance thing or does it add something extra that the other browsers don't? </p> http://www.roboformchrome.com/topic/roboform-for-google-chrome#post-38 Wed, 17 Sep 2008 00:04:09 +0000 dmurcho 38@http://www.roboformchrome.com/ <p>I am using Chrome because it is great. Fast, dependable, simple, huge reading space. I am using its internal password manager, but it is pretty insecure. Everytime I go to a new site, I have to call in Roboform because I just do not remember any passwords but one. My digital life would be much much better if Roboform integrated with Chrome. I hope it will integrate! </p> http://www.roboformchrome.com/topic/roboform-for-google-chrome#post-34 Tue, 16 Sep 2008 17:52:06 +0000 Claudiu 34@http://www.roboformchrome.com/ <p>Hi yegods and welcome to the forums.<br /> <em>"not sure it will do any good... but whatever"</em></p> <p>Google/Roboform have marketers on their side, and trust me that searching for feedback is one of their mission too, so any mention of a wanted feature somewhere gets noticed if it is requested by many users. The first thing they ask is if there's market for a certain feature, and where's lots of requests it means there's market. </p> http://www.roboformchrome.com/topic/roboform-for-google-chrome#post-33 Mon, 15 Sep 2008 23:26:40 +0000 yegods 33@http://www.roboformchrome.com/ <p>not sure it will do any good... but whatever. i love roboform, and couldn't live without it. i am interested in Chrome, because Avant and IE are inefficient and consume too much memory, and will not release it, even when a page is closed. Chrome would not have that problem. </p> http://www.roboformchrome.com/topic/google-chromes-market-share-at-1#post-32 Fri, 12 Sep 2008 16:30:56 +0000 Claudiu 32@http://www.roboformchrome.com/ <p>According to <a href="http://marketshare.hitslink.com/report.aspx?sample=21&#38;qprid=43&#38;qpcustom=Chrome+0.2">Net Applications</a> Google Chrome's market share is around 1% (they offer hourly usage statistics since last week). It's interesting to see what happens next, ideal for them would be the trend to be ascending. </p> <p>If this is true (valid results would be considered at least after a month of statistics), then it means Google Chrome managed to obtain a market share higher than Opera's, in less than 1 week. Impressive. </p> http://www.roboformchrome.com/topic/the-google-chrome-sandbox#post-31 Thu, 11 Sep 2008 19:56:01 +0000 Claudiu 31@http://www.roboformchrome.com/ <p>The Chromium blog team explained a little bit how the sandbox in Google Chrome protects you when browsing. As a note, Google Chrome is the web browser that Google released, while Chromium the open source project from which Google Chrome is compiled.</p> <p>As for the explanation of the sandbox:</p> <blockquote><p>Chromium helps protect your computer from malware by running some parts of the browser in a sandbox. The sandbox tries to limit what an attacker can do after exploiting a bug. In particular, the sandbox aims to prevent malicious web sites from automatically installing software on your computer and from reading confidential files on your hard drive.</p> <p>[...] The sandbox doesn't prevent every kind of attack (for example, it doesn't stop phishing or cross-site scripting), but it should make it harder for attackers to get to your files.</p></blockquote> <p>The full post can be read <a href="http://blog.chromium.org/2008/09/security-architecture.html">here</a>. This kind of "each tab as a process in a sandbox" implementation resembles less with a browser, and more to an operating system - what many other people think that Google is going to transform Chrome into. </p> http://www.roboformchrome.com/topic/google-chrome-beta-0214929-the-first-patch#post-22 Tue, 09 Sep 2008 12:39:36 +0000 Claudiu 22@http://www.roboformchrome.com/ <p>Google Chrome silently updated itself to version 0.2.149.29 (apparently <a href="http://googlechromereleases.blogspot.com/2008/09/beta-release-0214929.html">since September 5</a>), but this version doesn't contain any new features, it just fixes some critical security flaws such as:</p> <ul> <li>a buffer overflow vulnerability in handling long filenames that display in the Save As... dialog. Issue: <a href="http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1414" rel="nofollow">http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1414</a></li> <li>a buffer overflow vulnerability in handling link targets displayed in the status area when the user hovers over a link. Issue: reported internally to Google</li> <li>an out-of-bounds memory read when parsing URLs ending with :%. This is a low risk that can be used to crash the entire browser, possibly causing loss of data in the current session. Issue: <a href="http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=122" rel="nofollow">http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=122</a></li> <li>changing the default Downloads directory if it is set to Desktop, and ensure that Desktop cannot be the default (to avoid "malicious cluttering of the desktop with unwanted downloads").</li> </ul> <p>Very good of them to have fixed these issues, but I still would have appreciated a pop-up or something letting me know that the program itself was updated - even if it's for our own protection, I don't like having things automatically accessing the internet and downloading/installing files. So as mentioned above, you don't have to worry about downloading anything since Google Chrome automatically updated itself. </p> http://www.roboformchrome.com/topic/google-chrome-things-i-like-about-it#post-20 Tue, 09 Sep 2008 10:42:11 +0000 Claudiu 20@http://www.roboformchrome.com/ <p>Greasemonkey yes. Since Chrome is open source I think this is quite possible, we just have to give them a little more time. They will add plugins, addons, extensions or widgets (however they'll call them) to Chrome sooner or later (hopefully sooner). </p>
