I recently installed Firefox 3.6. It indicated I may need to install a new update for Google in order to keep my computer running fast. I clicked on the "research" link which led to several websites to choose from. I have Windows 7 operating system. My Google plugin is version 1.2.183.39. I am not having any problems with it. Do I need to update it? If so, what version should I use and where do find it?

There is no need to update that plugin. It is the updater that installs and updates software in the Google Pack. For more details on it see http://www.google.com/support/pack/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=30252
