Went to download the Firefox toolbar last night, returned a download error. This morning, the auto-redirect to the Firefox version has been removed, and the homepage now shows the original message referring users to the "unofficial" Googlebar.

:(

Which site was that on?

I can still get the actual toolbar from the Google site.

[toolbar.google.com...]

Interesting, I can still get to that page but it was the actual binary that would not download - which together with the fact that they have stopped promoting the Firefox toolbar on the toolbar homepage made me think they'd pulled it.

It still doesn't work from within Firefox, but if I try to "wget [toolbar.google.com...] it downloads fine...!
