2. Follow instructions.

A project to fix a scrolling bug in early releases of Google Chrome

- Google’s new browser. Although the browser is open source, the

source code was not used in the development of the fix. In the

future, I could write an article explaining how to find the source

of this bug, and how to fix it.

I could also change the scroll amount to be slightly less.

Feedbacks and comments welcome to the email address above.

Other notes:

Warning: Chrome Patch will attempt to patch your installed version of Chrome.

If you wish to patch a different version, make sure the patcher is in the

same directory as “chrome.dll”.

“Chrome Patcher by Paulus. Run from the same directory as “chrome.dll”

for higher success rate.”

Update: It seems as though the issue has been fixed in open source Chromium builds. The patcher can still be used until it is updated officially.
