This is a great feature! - All we need now is an easy solution to get all the IE, Firefox and Opera users out there to install Chrome!...

I am all for a safe internet. I wonder just how this might be used in a bad way? Who (I know Google but WHO @ the Google Organization will manage this kind of stuff. It might take a person to do this. An algorithmic might take care of it.

Windows users always have a bad time with these downloads. And the real issues are that even if the files are safe, Virus Free, They may still be Malicious in nature.

Will this ever be implemented on the Mac (Safari) or on the Mac version of Google Chrome. This is an excellent idea that should be available to all users in order to be most effective!

Instead of having a locally installed security software, this is a new way of Cloud based security and Google wants everything in the Cloud. And this strategy really work. If everyone start using Google Chrome, it will be a other way of using security suits.
