Bug Description

Apport has come up saying that an app has crashed and if I want to report the bug and if I want to restart the app. In actual fact the app did not crash and worked just normally afterwards.
It has happened with different apps, most commonly with Google Chrome.
Also, even though I leave the Report it checked in, it does not generate any report and just silently disappears. No Data what happens afterwards.
This has happened randomly a number of times.

I am running Ubuntu 14.04 with all updates installed on a Dell Inspirion 17R with 8GB RAM and an SSD hard disk.
