how odd. I've never noticed that. I dont use IE often :P firefox is the way to go

I think it might depend upon whether you opt to Install the Advanced Features during the InstallationDon't know for certain becasue I never accept the Advanced Features
Lesley

Hi guys,
I didn't install the advanced features.
I use it every day so maybe thats why it installed.
The version is 3.0.124.6 big/en (GGLD)

I use mine every day - it's been on all day - but it has not Updated itself - still Version 2.0.114.9
Odd ?

Lesley, are you blocking it through the FW (outboard access)? THIS google page stated the following under the Auto Update feature:
There's no need to check for new versions of Google Toolbar; updates are installed automatically, so you'll always have the latest and greatest version.
HTH

Lesley,
I meant I use it in searches a lot every day.
Maybe it searches for updates after x amount of searches?Asus A8V Deluxe Rev.2

Funny you should mention that - today I Uninstalled my Trend Micro Firewall\AV Program because it had expired and I don't want to get another just yet - maybe that was stopping it - anyway I've Enabled the Windows Firewall - but it's still not Updating!
Chunko - yes I do a lot of daily Searches too
Now I want mine to Auto-Update!

Lesley, the version you have is the latest release version. There are some betas though.

You can check the version history of the Google Toolbar here.Tip: You can determine which version of the Toolbar you have by clicking the "Google" menu on the Toolbar and selecting "Help" > "About Google Toolbar"
Version 3.0.119.3 beta
New SpellCheck feature to check your spelling whenever you type in web forms
New AutoLink feature to turn street addresses into links to online maps
New WordTranslator feature to translate English words into other languagesVersion 2.0.114.9

I'd still like to know how it updated itself.

So - does the Version 2.0.114.9 automatically Update itself to the Version 3.0.119.3 beta ? - as per the original Post and Response 13 by Chunka
Lesley

This better not be a new vulnerability for IE6.If it is I hope someone can report it.
