google toolbar

is it "safe" to download on to my mac? I got a warning message just before I did it!

Does it work with Mac Safari? - I have snow leopard.

Do I need it with above? If not what is the equivalent?

I dont know why people bother with toolbars, They are so annoying and use system resources that could be used on something better. Best to ditch the toolbars .

Agree, most browsers come with search bars on them already and also are capable of blocking pop ups etc which is really all a toolbar does!

Thanks. Are you Mac or PC? You didn't quite answer the mac/safari issues.
I just thought I should use this tool, don't know why! trying to stay young and tekkie!

Sorry, not too good on Mac's myself. According to Google the toolbar is only available for Internet Explorer and Firefox, sorry!

Google have a more customizable tool bar = Google Shortcuts .
Dont know how well it works on a Mac but its Firefox compatible and FF works on a Mac .

Are you allowed to use Google on one of Steve Jobs baby's .

young and tekkie = no toolbars

old and untekkie & wrecked computer = toolbars

Nectar toolbar (for those with nectar cards) 100 points for trying out and 50 points per months for searching (100 searches needed). Isn't that a moneysaver approved type of toolbar? I agree that loads of them weight down your browser for no big gain.
