Until recently Chrome has been running fine. However, now it automatically ticks the "Use a proxy server for your LAN" around every 30 seconds or so, unticking it does nothing.
I installed and ran RogueKiller which didn't seem to fix it, and also Google hasn't presented me with a solid solution. Does anyone have any help or guides to go by to attempt to fix this as it's becoming a real annoyance now.
If worse comes to worse I can do a fresh install of Windows 8.1 since it's a fairly new PC without anything important on.
