GM Ed or should I say GN when your msg is dated 0:19,

EV> Avast has a Tab selection that checks (some) program I use to see if
EV> their Version is up-to-date.

So has AVG and many other programs.

EV> When I see the Results there is always a Premarked Box to make
EV> Google Chrome the default Browser.

The same holds true for Opera also, and once you have set it to be
default, there's no way out. I had not observed the box when installing
that said it would be the default browser. To get away I had to delete
the whole shit and re-install it.

Out the window flew the nice Speed menu that I had created.

EV> Because I see this 'suggestion' from Avast to begin using the Chrome
EV> Browser often enough, I have began wondering how many readers of
EV> this echo use Google's Chrome for their main browser or as an
EV> optional browser?

I have Chrome installed on Windows machines but I use it very seldom.

Generally I use FFox for FB and most things, but since I noted that I
always had to wait for the circular arrow to appear to be able to get
the Weather map updated because it always appeared with data from my
previous visit, I use Edge because it always starts updated.

EV> I usually never allow any 'services(?)' from Google unless I can't
EV> see what I want to see on the page I'm looking at.

Neither do I, but since a crash I lost the AVG Secure Search, I have
used Google.

Another Note:

Years ago I told you that neither Mothers nor Fathers day are celebrated
the dates you do. Not even the neighboring countries Sweden and Finland
celebrate those days on the same date.
