For users of Chrome

[Giraffe]

One fault with Chrome is that it feeds info to Google. Came across a bit of freeware, called UnChrome that purports to stop this:

"Regarding to Google, "Google Chrome is a browser that combines a minimal design with sophisticated technology to make the web faster, safer, and easier". Unfortunately, each Google Chrome installation contains a unique ID that allowing identifying its user. Google doesn't make it an easy job to remove this ID.

"UnChrome helps you with this task. It replaces your unique ID with Null values so that your browser cannot be identified any longer. The functionality of Google Chrome is not influenced by this. You only need to apply UnChrome once."

There is also a modified version of Google Chrome that has all the reporting back removed.SRWare Iron, but the default search sites default to German versions.
