Open Source BrowserGoogle has just launched a new Open Source browser they've named "Chrome". Chrome was based off of Safari 3.1, but there have been early reports of bugs.

Security researcher Aviv Raff says Google's new browser Chrome exposes users "malicious hacker attacks," because it allows users to launch executable files directly from the browser and without warning. Raff created a harmless demonstration to show how with successful bait, Google Chrome users could accidentally download and launch a Java archive file that goes on to execute without warning.
