    I got the same with Chrome 19. Almost certainly flash related.. Such a pile of crap that software, the sooner websites stop using that brain damage the better.

    I'm going to uninstall it when back from work and see how far I get. I can't think of that many places which actually use it that I visit.

    flash is the issue, there is a 'fix' that seems to have helped me a bit though.
    You just need to disable the new stupid 'sandbox' they've given to firefox....
