---- hey Google - don't auto-update my toolbar!

What a crazy thread. You opt-in to auto-updating when you install the toolbar. Sheesh.

I know this may sound crazy, but most of the times, most of us simply click yes for downloading tools/softwares without reading in depth. But it certainly is more helpful if the auto-update process takes place after a small confirmation before downloading the new version.

Of course, since we opted-in, Google has every right to auto-download, but as I mentioned a little "There is a new upgrade available, do you want to download and install it" certainly goes a long way.

I was shocked when I noticed the new one. In fact, I prefer the version before this one, because it has a bigger area assigned for using the "backward links", "cached snapshot", etc [The blue i (exclamation)]
