Having trouble with the backdoor Trojan that creates multiple instances of Chrome to use system resources. After latest Norton update I note in restarted the PC and had removed Firefox as a threat. Reinstalled but then noticed the file name above in the same directory as the FF.exe file. Wonder if this is supposed to be there or if something has hijacked your install file. Am downloading directly from Mozilla.

The only thing Chrome in Firefox is chrome refers to the browser's user interface: that is, any toolbars, menu bars, tabs, and everything that surround the web page being displayed. It must not be confused with the Google Chrome web browser which is often refer as "Chrome". The Google Chrome browser did not exist before Sept 2008 and Firefox has existed since it was Phoenix 0.1 back in Sept 2002 (not Nov 2004 as some mistakenly think).
