Operating System: WIN 8, 8.1

I am using a website (ribbon.me) which has a built in horizontal bar on its Explore TimeMap (basically a combination of a map and calendar into a single tool) that users can grab with the cursor / mouse to move the date forward or backwards in time. There is NOT supposed to be a "standard browser scroll bar" but one is appearing in Chrome. It only appears on my brand new computer...on my old Windows 7 computer, using latest Chrome, the scroll bar doesn't appear. (Even in Internet Explorer on the new computer, the scroll bar doesnt appear...but I dislike IE and LOVE Firefox) How the heck do I get rid of this scroll bar?

Please help!
