    Suddenly, after using Chrome for a couple of weeks as my primary browser, it's now acting strangely.

    When I first launch Chrome now, it opens about half width, instead of maintaining the size it was previously open to.

    Also, when it first opens, it shows me the most visited sites, but the images are broken... I get a "missing image" (broken camera) where usually nine images of the home pages of my 9 most visited sites would appear! Also, ALL of my bookmarks no longer have logos, they're all generic.

    Anyone have any ideas? Has anyone had this problem and solved it?

    I tried to uninstall and reinstall Chrome, same problem.

    Thanks... reps to anyone who can help me solve this problem! (I happen to really prefer Chrome over Firefox and IE)

    Did you use any registry cleaners? Did you wipe files on accident? Those might explain this behavior.
