Mozdev.org is developping a Googlebar, a clone of Google Toolbar, for Firefox browser.
This Googlebar works just like the Google Toolbar for IE.
The developper would not implement features found in other extensions (such as form fill) or built into Firefox (such as the popup blocker).

Here is a screen shot


I personally use the Google toolbar a whole lot for IE, and having it available for Firefox as well would be absolutely great.

I'm sorry to be so rude... But is this news to you? I've been using the Google Toolbar for Firefox since Firefox's PR versions! If you want to get more extensions for your Firefox, go to https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/?application=firefox to get the newest and the most popular extensions.

Sorry again...

Why would you want 2 use firefox? Whats up with windows explorer? :S

If you have mistyped Windows Explorer instead of internet explorer than search this forum for post realted to firefox and you will soon find out why everyone should use Firefox. Or if you don't have time to searching the forums go to http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/ download firefox from there for free and soon you will find out why firefox is better than Internet explorer.

And if you don't mistyped the word and you mean by Windows Explorer itself than it is OK . You did not need to search anything on the fourms and you also don't need to download the firefox. Just increase your computer knowledge.

Well to be honest Windows Explorer is the same as Internet Explorer because the basis of Windows XP is based on Internet Exporer/Windows Explorer just like SuSE is based on Konqeror.;

There appears to be a fair bit of confusion which I'll attempt to sort out.

First - Windows Explorer v/s Internet Explorer

Win Explorer is a file manger.
IE is a web browser.

Second - GoogleBar v/s Google Toolbar

GoogleBar is designed originally by Andy Edmonds but is now supported by an extremely able team. It was designed to be a clone of the Google Toolbar that was available at the time for Internet Explorer but unfortunately not for Mozilla Firefox(Firebird/Phoenix?). More importantly it's open source software !

Google Toolbar BETA has been released very recently (less than a week) by the folks at Google, so it's an OFFICIAL build and NOT a clone. It also incorporates the PageRank feature which GoogleBar doesn't (since it's a proprietary Google feature.)

In any case, I keep repeating this every chance I get - Well done, Google ! for supporting Firefox...

Just wondering, do you use Google Toolbar? For me>>> I have IE with only one Toolbar line (including Google) at the top. I am not sure how I compressed them: drag and drop somehow. I use ALT-(left arrow) as my Back button, so I don't need Standard Buttons. ...more

I have been using the Google Toolbar for the longest time now, and I recently discovered that they released a beta of version 3! I looked at the new features available, and the one that caught my attention. The new toolbar has a web form spell checker. After installing the free toolbar (which ...more

I just found out that Google Toolbar is out for Firefox. I downloaded and installed it immediately, but I was a bit disappointed. Although there are a few new features that are not available in Googlebar (the mozdev one) like AutoLink, SpellCheck and PageRank (though I rarely use this one), it has m ...more
