Google Chrome Blocks Secure Websites, Reports Malware Issues

by S.Roy on February 5, 2013

Users of the Google Chrome browser woke up on Monday to malware warnings as they tried to access some of their favorite news and media websites, typically reported to be secure.

The problem occurred to, and was reported by, some users of Chrome. Reportedly, they received a malware warning from their browser as they tried to read news articles from media sites, including bigwigs like Guardian, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, The New York Times and Mercury News.

The issue occurred after the website of the advertising company Netseer was hacked. The Google Chrome browser blocked those websites that are served ads by Netseer. The Chrome malware notification read:

“Content from cm.netseer.com, a known malware distributor, has been inserted into this web page. Visiting this page now is very likely to infect your computer with malware.”

The issue was resolved once Netseer clarified that its ads were not infected with any malicious programs or virus. Google responded by halting the malware warnings.

Hack Chrome OS, Win $3.14 Million from Google

by S.Roy on February 4, 2013

That Google is confident of its product is evident in its challenge to hackers to break the security of Google Chrome operating system. The reward is a staggering 3.14 million USD. The catch? You have to use a WiFi connection and a basic Samsung 550 Chromebook model. The venue is that of the Pwnium hacking contest to be held this year.

This is not the first time that Google has been making such offers. Industry observers and techies would obviously recall the previous cash rewards of the tech giant to hack its systems. However, the previous contests Hack in the Box and CanSecWest 2012 were aimed at breaking into the Chrome browser security and not that of the eponymous OS.

Contestants can keep their identities a secret. Earlier, a teenager using the name Pinkie Pie managed to win $60,000 at the contest.

While the offer sure is a lucrative one, industry analysts are viewing this as a clever attempt by Google to popularize the Chrome OS that has a very small market share as yet.

Sub-Categories Added In Chrome Web Store

by arupchou on February 16, 2012

The Chrome Web Store hosts a number of applications which makes browsing on Chrome a delight. However, there were some issues with the Web Store. Up until now, when users opened the store they were shown a list of recommended apps and extensions on the home page. Users were also given options to change the listing to popular items. There were no sorting options for apps and extensions by release date, update day etc. This made it pretty hard to find new and exciting extensions and applications in the store. Another issue was the fact that because of this, developers and firms could add their applications to two different categories and hence users found duplicate listings in the store.
