Now that I have the new version of Firefox not only have I lost my Google toolbar but I cannot send a link either by right clicking or by using the section in File, any ideas?

Since the new version of Firefox downloaded I no longer have a Google toolbar but when I try to send a link of a web page I cannot do this either by right clicking the mouse or by using the same tool under File. Why?

Google needs to update the Google Toolbar program for Firefox 5.0.

The Google Toolbar 7.1.20110512W version does work in Firefox 5.0 by using the Compatibility Reporter extension, I tried it myself due to the large number of postings about GTB problems.

I had the same problem and tried posted solutions causing new problems. But, I put my cursor on the tiny margin of the home screen toolbar and right clicked. I highlighted "add on toolbar" and my old Google toolbar is back! Now how do I get rid of the mozilla thing that allows incompatible add ons? It does not show up on my ad/uninstall programs. Google toolbar is back!

If you un-install the ACR extension the Google Toolbat extension will probably stop working again.
