Verified on Chrome 2 (not Chrome 1).  Either Chrome 2 or prototypejs  
is broken - this is the line that isn't working properly (in  
_addMouseEvents in DimpBase.js):

elt = $(p.id).down('div.msCheck')

It is the selector 'div.msCheck' that is broken on Chrome - it returns  
an undefined value instead of a DOM element (a DIV element of class  
'msCheck' does exist).

Simply put, this is not a Horde/IMP/DIMP issue.
