For some days I got the red circle in the notification bar. After not being able to run software-updater, I tried using apt-get update.

This is what I got:

W: An error occurred during the signature verification. The repository is not updated and the previous index files will be used. GPG error: http://dl.google.com stable Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG A040830F7FAC5991 Google, Inc. Linux Package Signing Key <linux-packages-keymaster@google.com>

W: Failed to fetch http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/dists/stable/Release  

W: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

I suggest you to remove/disable that source (http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/dists/stable/Release) on your APT configuration.

You can do that at graphical interface of Program Update on Configurations > Another Programs tab, unchecking the respective line.

Or you can do that editing the file /etc/apt/sources.list using your preferred editor (gedit, vim, etc). Considering that you are going to need sudo to do that, you can use the following sequence: Alt-F2 > insert "gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list" > enter your password when asked > edit the file to add a "#" character at the line "deb http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/dists/stable/Release .. "
