This extension started making life heck for me in the late fall. It manifested itself by causing my labels to disappear after login. I would see them for a few seconds (after login and after reload), then they'd "blink out", leaving an empty column where my labels should be. I'd uninstalled & reinstalled Chrome a couple of times, including manually removing cached files in a few different places on disc, but the behavior persisted. Finally I removed ALL of my extensions, and started re-adding them, luckily wiht this one first. Once it was installed, the behavior returned immediately, so BINGO. DON'T install this if you like seeing your labels!!
