Same problem with chrome for mac
 
Well if your /home is on another partition, it shouldn't be too much of a problem. Otherwise ;(
 
Anyone got Chrome installed on Ubuntu? It does not make it to ubuntu apt yet. There is a wine solution but it's pretty handicapped compared to the MS version.

If you are looking for ad blocking, the best method I've found if you're using windows is a hosts file. Completely prevents any tcpip connections to a ton of ad networks and a ton of other stuff you wouldn't want to connect to. So you don't need a browser-specific solution.

It's really easy to install (it's just a text file)
