google chrome being gay? - aikouka - 04-28-2014 08:33 PM
so all of a sudden, when i type in google chrome "www.youtube.com" this "Search YouTube" pops up, and it wants me to type what im gonna youtube. i ignore it and press enter, and nothing happens, cause it wants me to type in what i feel like youtubing. then i try 4shared.com, it gives me "Search 4Shared" and wants me to type in what i feel like searching on 4shared. wtf? i cant use my freaking web browser to actually go to websites? wow. is this happening to anyone else?

Google chrome is new and might have some problems. They might fix that though, like release an update. You should use Firefox or Safari. These are the most popular browsers and theyre fast.

There could be contradicting "cookies" which may
have put themselves on your computer
Exit out of YouTube (but not your browser) and do
one of the steps below. Afterwards, shutdown and
reboot. Not only will this "unclog" your computer's
cache memory and your "cookies", everything will
come across as fresh and new in YouTube's eyes:
