Comment #12 on issue 10548 by glen.84: After update some 'old-version'  
folders remain
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=10548

I'm not a security expert, but if for example the previous version of  
Google Chrome
had an escalation of privilege vulnerability, would it not be possible for  
malicious
software to take advantage of this fact? Regardless, it's very annoying  
that Google
Chrome is the *only* application listed as insecure in Secunia PSI,  
preventing a 100%
system score.

The Google Update process can prompt the user to restart and then remove  
the previous
version. If the user declines, they can live with the extra version until  
the next
update, at least it gives us the option. This would keep the code outside  
of Google
Chrome as well.
