He does believes it is a user convenience, but doesn't like the idea of a browser creating and directing links. He said he's spoken with Google officials and they are open to making some modifications. My thought on Toolbar Beta 3 and Autolinks come from a user perspective. I say use it! Downloading and installing Google Toolbar takes literally minutes.It will give you a pop up blocker, spell check, word translator, autofill, highlighter, word find button, Google search field and more. Look, the Google Toolbar is an optional download. Then, clicking on Autolinks is an optional step. On top of that, you can go into Options and change where the Autolinks point to.

Now when Google comes out with a much-rumored Gbrowser and it becomes the world standard we'll have to revisit how they are using their powerful hold of the user.

Come on, get with it and starting using the much better controversy surrounding Google's toolbar. Google Tutor & Advisor.
