  I've heard(seen) people talking about Google Chrome being a better browser to play the game on. So, I loaded it and this is what I got;

  Commercials and very slow loading.

  What is it you folks get out of it, besides that? I much prefer IE over Chrome at this point. I get no commercials and a much faster game load. I saw no difference in game play. Just askin.....

  Install the AdBlock extension. Options/Extensions. The loading will get better as you load the game files intot he browser cache. You're starting empty. 

  Also, make sure closing the browser isn't defaulting to the actions it's set up for. Again, Options/Under the Hood/Clear browsing data-uncheck everything except Empty the cache.

  Where is the AdBlock extension, I go to extensions and it says there is none. I did finally get CD to work but very slow on screen changing in a game at night only.

  You have to "Get More Extensions"-click that. In the event you can't find that, get them here.

  Resist the temptation to put games and garbage on CD-use Chrome if you must.  ;-)

  In all honesty, I'm using Firefox for everything now.  I tried Chrome and it was better than IE, but frankly I feel that Firefox has been great and very reliable for me. If you are having problems with Chrome, or if it isn't working with your particular system for some reason, give Firefox a go...you may like it.

  I'm not getting any meter issues. It's rare that it stutters. I am also pretty good about removing my hand from the mouse when this happens. It keeps me from that premature clickulation. Thanks for the responses.

  I had issues with IE kicking me out of multi player games. Switched to Chrome, for this game only & haven't been booted since. ( yet )
