Google-chrome – How to install Google Chrome and Talk to a non-default location

That is the Google Chrome auto update running. It's mounts that disc image, updates if necessary and then unmounts it.

It cannot be disabled. There are very large discussions on this on Google's Chrome site.

I no longer use Chrome. I use the open source Chromium, but it's Snow Leopard only and I built it from source.

As a side note, I'm getting pretty tired of Google getting right up to the evil line of "don't be evil" and hanging out like it's their job.

I downloaded the standalone installer for all users and it worked. Since it needs administrator privileges to install for all users, it's probable that the non-standalone, single-user installer didn't work because administrator privileges were not explicitly granted.
