Weird, I don't have that problem. I would suspect that it either asks you about making changes and you just click ok without thinking, or you have a setting that you need to change to stop the behavior.

Meh, FF is fine, I definitely don't have that problem. I have tried Chrome a few times (not recently) and found it not as good as FF. I'm sure it's better now, but I just don't have a reason to switch. Besides, I was an Android guy, and I do like googley stuff, but I'm not sure that I completely trust google with my browsing. I get the feeling that the NSA aspires to be as good as google at getting your data.
