It has the same MD5/SHA-1 as my download and used for the scenario below. I have unpacked it to three different locations and run them concurrently, giving each separate settings and home pages. Each one writes its own .ini files that confirms the separate configurations. On re-opening them, all retain their individual settings, window sizes, etc. If you change all the settings in: 'Customise and control Chromium' -> 'ChromePlus Options Page' -> 'General settings' -> 'Privacy Plus:', then ChromePlus.ini is created in the 'ChromePlusUserData' directory. Contents of ChromePlus.ini [Exit] DeleteHistory=1 DeleteCookies=1 DeleteExtensionCookies=1 DeleteThumbnails=1 DeleteVisitiedLinks=1 DeleteRecentlyClosed=1 I can move them to any location I want, including placing a copy inside a copy inside a copy without noticing any differences to how they are configured as individual applications, be it one at a time or all together. This machine has never seen 'Chrome' and I can only propose that when chrome.exe is run, it looks for an installed copy and acts differently... Just wild guessing now.

I was hoping there might be a portable version to sample ... There's a portable Chrome at PortableApps. http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/google_chrome_portable Dave -- Registered Linux user # 444770
