I've never seen that before and I run Chrome daily. Have you got any extensions or toolbars which could be adding that?
Yeah, that isn't part of chrome, do you run the google toolbar etc Looking at it though it seems to have quite a few differing icons from other companies so I would hazard a guess thats an extension. Might be worth checking the extensions tab and seeing what you have.
Same as Paul, I run chrome daily on all machines I use and never come across that before.
Same, never come across it, so I'd be looking at other software running that's making that happen..
Check in the extensions or something :)
That is definitely a third party extension doing that.
Thanks very much. It's part of 'Fastest Browse'. My bad :p
looks a lot like a nicer implementation of IE8's "accelerators". I assume from your description that it pops up as soon as you highlight text (rather than on a mouseover / middle click or somesuch)? Looks like a nice idea, but I couldn't do with it popping up every time I highlighted text...
Yes, when you highlight text on the page. This is annoying not only because I highlight a lot - but it always takes a second to load/freezes everything a second.
I don't browse like that, but if I did I prefer using the right click menu.
The main reason I highlight text in web pages is to search / map / wiki it in some way, so it'd be useful for me - but not if it comes up as soon as you highlight, *and* slows your browsing down, that'd just be a pain. Don't think I'll bother with that for now ;)
