Get Google bar, has a popup blocker and is so much easier to search without having to go back to the main Google page

This is true, and it lets you unblock pop ups for certain sites if you need to

didn't know they came together all i know is we have the google search in the address bar line but iirc it came from firefox extensions like i have the local weather on there aswell.
not been to look for a while though are there any good extensions out atm?

My copy of Firefox has a Google search box and an integrated popup blocker. I haven't downloaded anything extra.

Use seamonkey, hell of a lot better than firefox and doesnt take aslong to start up 
if your using ie: then i would recommend getting Popup Manager, works a treat!
btw, wasnt there a thing a little while ago about some security company finding that the google bar calls home about what youre doing on the net and what you search for?
