>Which version of Chrome do you have?

>>Hi everybody,
>>
>>I'm not exactly sure what happens, but I think it may be the latest Windows Update? In addition, I added my gmail account to Pidgin, but I'm not sure if this is related.
>>
>>What happens is that I'm hearing the computer's fan really loud as it's working hard and also in the Google Chrome the screen visibly refreshes every few seconds.
>>
>>One of the usual remedies is a computer re-start - I haven't tried it yet.
>>
>>Do you know what else may be a problem or how can I fix it?
>>
>>Thanks in advance.
>>
>>UPDATE. I re-started. It still seems to visually refresh :( In particular, my gmail.com is visually refreshing. I think I also recently installed latest Silverlight, but I'm not 100% certain.
