Hi Guys
I did get the Chrome glitch fixed, I'm not sure exactly what happened, but in searching I found a download for an extension that said it would get rid of the multiple pages opening problem.
I downloaded and installed it.
Even though I took great care to tell it that I didn't want anything else installed I ended up with some malware called Something Search, that took over my home page on all of the browsers.
After researching that I was able to remove it with SuperAntiSpyware, which I use anyway.
That took an hour or so, and I had to do a system restore at the end to make sure I had a clean registry.
That caused me to have to reinstall my recent graphics driver updates and Java, but when I got done Chrome was working normally again.
IE still won't show my Comcast home page but I've found a lot of other people with the same problem over an extended period of time with no resolution, so I'll just use MSN's home page it I need to use IE.
There used to be time when I would run into sites that required it but that doesn't seem to happen much anymore.
