Google on Tuesday released a new stable version of its Chrome web browser, which the company describes as speedier, simpler and safer on its official blog site.

With today's stable release, even (your) most complex web apps will run more quickly and responsively in the browser. (For the curious, this boost corresponds to a 66% improvement in JavaScript performance on the V8 benchmark suite.), Tim Steele, a Google software engineer, said in a blog post announcing the release.

Chrome's new settings interface will help you get to the right settings quickly so you don't have to dig endlessly to find a way to import your bookmarks or change your browser's homepage. We've added a search box that shows you the settings you're looking for, as you type. On top of that, you can also copy and paste a direct link into Chrome's address bar to jump to a specific settings page, the blog added.

Users who save your passwords in the browser, can now quickly log on to the websites you frequent even when you switch computers, by simply synchronizing those passwords across your computers, Steele said on the blog post.

Google said that the latest Chrome browser provides additional layer of protection against malicious web pages, with the extended application of sandboxing technology.

The Users can download the browser at google.com/chrome, or if the user is already using Chrome, it will be automatically updated to this new version soon, the blog concluded.
