I have installed 5.01 and want to revert to the previous version so I can get Google Toolbar back. How do I do this?

Google Toolbar isn't compatible ith Firefox 5.01. I didn't realise how much I like Google so I don't want a browser which excludes Google Toolbar.

Google needs to update the Google Toolbar program for Firefox 5.0.

The Google Toolbar 7.1.20110512W version does work pretty good in Firefox 5.0 by using the Compatibility Reporter extension. But not every feature works 100%.

Google Labs has been working on a GTB 8 version, but it looks like it isn't made for Firefox - just for Internet Explorer.

So, maybe Google isn't going to be supporting Firefox any longer. That might be a move to force Google Toolbar users over to Google Chrome, which I believe has all those features built-in.

Thanks. I'll try that.

Thanks for the help. I accessed the above link from (cbeasley), restarted my PC and voila! Thanks again.

P.S. FF may want to link their spellchecker to their toolbar. It's so handy to have a really fine spellchecker always at hand.
