Google's advice is to update immediately.

I would have thought an update from 2 days ago would have fixed it @liggerz87

Thanks @Bambino

I have Chrome for e-mail. Just checked and "more" button says I have latest update. Do you know if this is correct and I`m bug-free? I only ask because usually get notification of update pending and haven`t received such a message since the news broke.

Thanks for any help.

@Mi-Amigo If it's saying you have the latest update then you do. You probably have it set for automatic updates.

Seems the bug is not just in Chrome, but also exacerbated on Windows 7 - if you're still running this 10 year old operating system, keep an eye on the Updates notification...
