Is Chromium/Chrome affected by this hack? I've tried clicking anon's link and got a "The following sites were visited" message, but there's no list of the sites I'm currently surfing and those that I've been through.

Chrome is immune if you use incognito mode, that's for sure.
"I just remembered something that happened a long time ago."
Yeah, but the problem is I wasn't the first few times I visited What. I've read on the link you've posted (the internets one) that current builds or Chrome and FireFox 3.7 RCs/4.0 were fixed but it still freaks me out.
So now we can use the same browser to view both SB-I and What.CD in the same time ?New In Firefox 4.0:
CSS :visited selectors have been changed to block websites from being able to check a user's browsing history.

Same question for me. Is it safe to use FF4 in normal mode or do I have to start Private Browsing?
Just check it with the history test on ha.ckers.org. If they can't see anything, neither can What.cd.
"I just remembered something that happened a long time ago."
it's better to use private browsing or use another browser just for trackers

Easier Way For This
Firefox :
Open about:config
Search for layout.css.visited_links_enabled
double click on it , you will see Value = false
The results showed none, even though I have layout.css.visited_links_enabled set to true.
I tried this yesterday on Chrome (latest dev release), opera 11.01 and Firefox 4 RC :
Chrome and Firefox Passed (The results showed none) , Opera Fail.
