Whenever I restart my computer, google chrome stops working and I have to use firefox. I checked my firewall settings, and I don't think its that. Usually I just restart my computer again or give it like a month and Chrome starts working again, but I'm sick of waiting around for it. What's up with it?

''Unable to access the network
Google Chrome is having trouble accessing the network.

This may be because your firewall or antivirus software wrongly thinks Google Chrome is an intruder on your computer and is blocking it from connecting to the Internet.
Here are some suggestions:
Add Google Chrome as a permitted program in your firewall's or antivirus software's settings. If it is already a permitted program, try deleting it from the list of permitted programs and adding it again.
Error 138 (net::ERR_NETWORK_ACCESS_DENIED): Unable to access the network.'

I'd try turning off your antivirus first. Then reopen Google Chrome to see if it works. If that doesn't work you can always uninstall and reinstall Google Chrome. Then again you could do the same for the antivirus software. As a last resort you could reset your router though if Firefox is working correctly it won't do much good.

Identical thing occurred to me. I suppose it can be window's way of saying you ought to use their crummy browser as a substitute. I simply switched to Safari. It appears and acts and appears quite a bit like Google Chrome. It is price to download it on the Apple website. You are not looking for a Mac or some thing. XxSaralin+SerpentxX ♥
