>I use a lot a feature of Google toolbar that translates words from Spanish to English on-the-fly. When I read Spanish text online I hover the mouse of the word and see a translation. I don't know of any other tool that does that.

In Chrome, if you go to a foreign language page you get similar functionality. You also get a toolbar popping up asking if you want to translate the page.

OTOH, Google's translate functionality is pretty sucky at least in context. Individual words might be fine, but whole text not so much.

>>Browsers now allow you to type search queries right into the address bar... What else is there on the Google toolbar (or any other 'search' toolbar) that's actually relevant anymore?

>>If you like Google functionality that's on the toolbar you might also try Chrome which essentially integrates most of that functionality (like auto-translate options etc.) right into the browser itself.

>>>Hi,
>>>
>>>Last version of FireFox I was using was something like 5 or 6. Then I kept receiving messages from FF that a new version is available but it would always say that Google toolbar would not work with it. So I never updated. Now I am on a new computer where I only use IE 8.0. And I want to install FireFox on this PC too. I believe that the latest version of FF is 9.0. Do you know if this version is now compatible with GoogleToolbar?
>>>
>>>TIA.
