Those of you who use the Google Toolbar in Firefox are probably quite familiar with many of the features of Toolbar 5 (beta), from the bookmark to the button and search box to “send” . We’ve added a few more features to the Firefox toolbar, so you can download this “second beta” to get all the latest and greatest toolbars that Google has to offer.

One of the features I really admire is the new tab. Now, when you open a new tab, and not the blank white page that you see by default in Firefox, you will see small pictures from your favorite sites (up to 9), recently closed sites and bookmarks of pages created based on your browser history. You can edit the pictures , and all this data remains in your browser, which means that no information about your most viewed sites or recently closed pages will be sent back to Google. If for some reason you do not like this, you can always change it to a blank page or to a site of your choice through the toolbar or the Firefox settings.

Some extension tabs may conflict with this feature, and is currently not compatible with Firefox 2, so check the settings or contact the help center if you have any problems.



The next time you want to go to your favorite site faster or restore a accidentally closed tab, you do not need to enter a URL. Just press Ctrl + T or double click to the right of the open tab and you will see your favorite sites.

In addition, this version currently provides the opportunity to access the toolbar 5 with reliable text from right to left.

We’re constantly working on improvements and new features for the Google Toolbar based on feedback .
