We had an interesting issue that has recently been occuring with folks using Google Chrome browser. When one of our applications that relies on Microsoft Silverlight was accessed, it kept asking for installation of Silverlight. I found this article, thought it was interesting, and worth sharing.

Silverlight Won’t Work In Chrome. What Now?

Episodic television and film content delivered over IP needs Digital Rights Management (DRM). How to handle the Silverlight deprecation.

Not needed really if you are using Chrome. Nice article though.

I stopped you windows after XP and gave up on internet explorer as well. I use Safari and went straight Mac. I haven't looked back since. I do have windows 8.1 on my work computer and hat it. It is a system that was designed for mobile devises not desktops. Having a touch screen laptop is just ridiculous.
