Hi blueboxer,
I totally agree that one must exercise extreme caution when downloading anything from the Internet. At the time I posted that link (way back when), Internet Explorer had that flaw. And I wanted a stand-alone download of the Chrome browser which could be taken to others' computers for install. Fortunately, that is all in the past now. I have no idea at this time where the link came from. I only remember it was not easy to find a full module download file for Chrome. Most downloads were installers.
I don't know how many people follow the practice of checking downloaded files at the VirusTotal site. I check EVERY file I download. This is the site in case anyone is interested. It also checks URLs.
