Ok, I used to use Google Chrome for everything, Until one day it desided to start crashing my tabs alot, Most of the time it would crash the tab your on, but then It started crashing other tabs on the same site, and now it crashes most of the tabs if not all of them. I'm Usually on a forum with a few other tabs open, Sometime they use alot of flash and sometimes none.

I have reinstalled tons of times to, I use a Program that cleans everything (IE: Left over folders, Left over registry Entry's), and Every-time it keeps doing the same thing.

I also Compared the Speed of its Webpage Loads to Firefox's, Firefox beat it by a long shot.

Few is a few questions I have to ask first:

1. Is there Extensions that would do this or conflict with eachother to do this? I do use alot of extensions.

2. Is it possibly the site that I'm on?

3. Could be a virus my Anti-Viruses are Missing?

4. Could it be my Anti-Virus?



OS - Windows 7 RC Build 7229
Chrome Version - 4.0.266.0 Dev
Anti-Virus / Other - NOD32 / Ad-Aware / Spybot search and Destroy

I am having the same problem :-)
and I suspect extensions is the caused
I got 24 extensions installed but not all are enabled

simply too tedious to find which extension is the culprit

My system is fine, I know that is not the issue. Within the past week or so Chrome has decided it wants to crash constantly (extremely annoying).

I am running Chrome 3.0.195.38

Here are my Extensions: (14)
I have uninstalled a few since the first post, but it is still happening.

I'd start with a virus scan ...

One of the best I use is A-Squared, which seems to find a lot of stuff that other AV don't ...

It's FREE and you can get it here ....

@ny

I have Avast as my primary AV, but A-Squared still finds stuff every now and again ...

UPDATE 01/04/10 4:20 PM
I RAN A-SQUARED A SECOND TIME AND IT FOUND ANOTHER VIRUS. HOPING THIS WILL SOLVE THE ISSUE - WILL LET YOU KNOW IF IT CRASHES AGAIN ...

Thanks for A-Squared! It did find some that Avast did not.

It still crashed again though I got this error: (it crashed yet again while posting this)

It still keeps doing it, sometimes it the Tab I am on, other times its the whole browser.

Can someone please help?
