Are you on an experimental version of Chrome? I mean, are you using Chrome, but a variant other than the stable one?

I've sometimes found that they roll out crazy experiments in the non-stable Chrome builds that integrate with crazy features on Google's web sites, such as the "remove the search box from the web page"-feature. I've since come to prefer the stable variant of Chrome :)

Same here. I got off the dev release channel at home after that, and switched to stable at work after they made the new tab page look like the Google homepage. It makes my browser less useful, and I couldn't find a way to disable it!
I'm on dev. I'll probably switch to stable yeah. But I'm afraid that this sort of things are gonna drip down to the stable eventually :/
