Chrome_Incgonito(2).js

If you haven't updated to 0.3.154.9 this script may still be of use. But, with that version you can now append: ...chrome.exe" --incognito to your Google Chrome shortcut and it will start in Incognito mode by default.

The original script is much "thinner". The differences between them:

-checks to see if chrome is already started - if it has script simply quits.
-sets first URL to use google as a proxy

If you have trouble saving code snippits see notes here.
