Give Google Chrome inbound internet access, yes or no?
Recently McAfee Security Center has been popping up alerts to allow Google Chrome to access incoming connections. This is something new I have seen within the past few days and it has not happened until then. For some reason, Google Chrome wants to enable incoming connections. Being a bit suspicious, I did a Google on this and found other posts about this concern at other boards, all recent. Nobody there really seems to know why.
So, long story short. Should I allow Chrome to enable incoming connections. Or should I get rid of Chrome altogether?

briguy10,
Google Chrome is a well known browser. I use Mozilla Firefox and Mozilla Thunderbird and I have to allow these broswers access to the internet or you won't connect. The inbound is probably checking for updates, so you should be ok.

Why do you use Chrome? I suggest to use Firefox or Opera instead of Chrome to get rid of this problem too.
