IE is crap.

Chrome is a good browser that is incidentally less extensible than Firefox, which means I prefer Firefox. Also, it makes several stupid policy choices that make it less attractive.

Are you aware that the Chrome Webstore has a perfectly working port of AdblockPlus as well?
It also has Ghostery.

In short -- Chrome is just as safe as Firefox. The inferior Web Developer tools, restricted and artificially held back extensibility options (for "security") and simplifiedmoronified menubar, or lack thereof, makes it very much a casual-use browser IMHO.
