The error that you get indicates more of a proxy problem than a virus problem. If you are behind a proxy, you have to have this added to your Chrome shortcut, in the Target field after the location of Chrome: --proxy-server="proxy:port" where proxy is the address of your proxy and the port is the port number.

If you think there's a virus, follow instructions from here to clean your computer from viruses http://www.fixya.com/support/r7263144-clean_computer_from_viruses

Once you cleaned up your PC, if your copy of Chrome is still corrupt, or it's not working, try to remove it and install it again. Here's a link to the download page http://www.google.com/chrome

Proxy setting 130
Exactly error: "Unable to connect to the proxy server
A proxy server is a server that acts as an intermediary between your computer and other servers. Right now, your system is configured to use a proxy, but Google Chrome can't connect to it.
Here are some suggestions:
If you use a proxy server, check your proxy settings or check with your network administrator to make sure the proxy server is working.
If you don't believe you should be using a proxy server, try the following steps: Go to Wrench menu > Options > Under the Hood > Change proxy settings > LAN Settings and deselect "Use a proxy server for your LAN."
Error 130 (net::ERR_PROXY_CONNECTION_FAILED): Proxy server connection failed."

The Proxy server is refusing connection,. Unable to connect to the Proxy server. Error 130 (net : Error_Proxy_Connection_Failed)
Google Chrome may not be using a proxy from your ISP odds are that it is not so you will have to go into the tools and options and then select connections section and disable the connection for proxy server usage just un check it not to use any proxy servers that is what is going on. I hope that this assisted you. Thanks for using FixYa! John

Error 130 (net::ERR_PROXY_CONNECTION_FAILED): Proxy server connection failed. I got this when conecting youtube. Can you help please?
Do you normally use a Proxy??? If not, then yes, it's most likely a virus that sets proxy settings, directing all your network traffic through the hacker's proxy. There, they capture all your internet traffic including login IDs and passwords.
If you have no idea how long this has been going on, then they have all your information already. Hacker proxies get shut down fairly quickly, hence the error you are seeing now. However, the damage may be done already.
Do a full virus scan, then go to all your online sites and change all the passwords - soon!
