| Most visited sites correct? | Ineda | 5/4/09 10:44 AM | My husband recently updated to chrome. The new tab shows the new most visted sites feature. How correct is that information? Could a site appear in error? |
| Re: Most visited sites correct? | StevePaul | 5/4/09 4:49 PM | The new tab 'most recently' visited is taken from your browsing history. So by default, if you remove items from your browsing history this will be reflected in what is displayed ... As for things appearing in error, I can't really comment as I'm not |
| Re: Most visited sites correct? | StevePaul | 5/4/09 5:33 PM | Would be interesting to know the actual mechanics involved in deciding what appears on the 'most visited' especially as you can delete the history day by day ... |
| Re: Most visited sites correct? | StevePaul | 5/4/09 5:58 PM | That might be OK for you Teckies, but it's a bit too much for me :-) From a logical point of view, I'm guessing it must calculate (?) the most visited when you close Chrome and retain that info for the next time you start Chrome .. |

| Re: Most visited sites correct? | Troy Spiral | 7/5/09 11:32 PM | I'm trying to figure out how it actually calculates the most visited websites , but I see nothing on the web. Strange. |
| Re: Most visited sites correct? | pakoconk | 8/3/09 5:23 PM | Hi Troy, I'm actually investigating the same. I want to make sure a couple of pages remain on the most visited... must be on a temp file, but I can't seem to find it, I've oppened up a thread on this here: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Chrome |
| Re: Most visited sites correct? | doulosg | 9/15/09 7:06 PM | I don't follow the logic of "When you click on a URL on a website, it doesn't count. Chrome only adds hits for things you've expressively wanted to visit." If I click the link, doesn't that express an interest? And if I'm constantly going to a partic |
| Re: Most visited sites correct? | cewagner | 12/14/10 6:22 PM | It would be nice to get a clear answer to this question. When I first started using Chrome last year, my gmail account never came up on my most visited sites. My grad school did, which was nice. About a month ago, I cleared my history and started |
| Re: Most visited sites correct? | markevens | 5/3/11 12:51 PM | Yes this is a known issue, if you have adware it can try to post incorrect history there to trick you into visiting sites. Usually porn/casinos/cheap knock off materials. Update antivirus and be careful what you install (Incredimail, free scrabble ga |

| Re: Most visited sites correct? | dezeray1 | 5/3/11 4:42 PM | Yes it is correct. Tell him to use private browsing next time he visits naughty sites. |

| Re: Most visited sites correct? | kostasdrakoumel | 5/4/11 5:01 AM | @markevens: I had exactly the same experience. It seems that some viruses tend to update directly the sqlite database that chrome uses and fill it in with bogus addresses, many of which are sites that infect you with even more viruses. The only way t |
| Re: Most visited sites correct? | DanGleebals | 9/21/11 10:30 AM | I for one have been affected by said virus and found an easy way to remove the virus involving clearing your history (where the virus "lays its eggs" parsee).

| Re: Most visited sites correct? | whereman | 9/22/11 2:10 AM | Viruses can make Google Chrome display bad websites. This always happens in my Chrome and sometimes even the best anti-virus aren't even capable of making them disappear. Don't worry about it, sometimes they will not contain viruses, they will only a |

| Re: Most visited sites correct? | 5pjbucks8 | 12/19/11 5:44 AM | What causes a site to not appear in the most visited list? I used to have facebook as a most visited page, but since I cleared my history cache and temporary internet files, it no longer appears, even though it truly is a frequently visited page. O |
