Found out about EMET 5.1 when IE started crashing.

With regards to the new EAF+ profile for Chrome, I think a few more things can be added as I've been using this for a while now and have had no issues:

chrome_child.dll;ffmpegsumo.dll;pepflashplayer.dll;pdf.dll;libpeerconnection.dll;widevinecdmadapter.dll;NPSWF32*.dll;NPSWF64*.dll

Which additionally has plugins which may be loaded (flash, html5 media, etc).
