[ubuntu] Chrome description stuck despite efforts to fix it topic

Hello everybody,

I have a quick question about something that has been slowly driving me insane for a while.

So, when I use the google chrome web browser, every time I hover the mouse over it, it shows this: http://i.imgur.com/laiHHC2.jpg , regardless of what page is actually loaded. I have tried the following to get this to go away:

Restart computer
Purge
Remove configuration files ( the ones in ~/.config/google-chrome)
restart again just to be safe
then reinstalling

This problem just keeps on persisting. To be clear, my problem is that it shows some reddit thread as the description regardless of what is actually in the browser.

Thanks in advance for the help,
