Depending on your configuration, when you install or upgrade software in Windows Vista, the software may for a brief time appear highlighted when viewing the "All Programs" menu.
This highlighting is done as a convenience to make it easier for you to find your newly-installed software. However, some may find this automatic highlighting annoying, as it also seems to occur every time a major update is performed of software such as iTunes or QuickTime. Thus, this can be disabled.
1. Right-click an empty area of the Windows Taskbar and choose "Properties".
2. When the "Taskbar and Start Menu Properties" multi-tabbed dialog box appears, click the "Start Menu" tab.
3. Next to the "Start menu" radio button click the "Customize" button. |

By default, if Google Chrome comes across a secure SSL webpage that also contains insecure content, the insecure content is allowed to load. This is because many secure web pages accidentally or intentionally load images or even scripts in an insecure manner. By loading these files insecurely, this places less strain on a server, though it can result in web browsers displaying security warnings.

Thus, for added security you may wish to try changing this setting unless it prevents you from accessing secure websites.
