If you have been like me and been tracking the Google Toolbar Help discussion area, you may have noticed complaint after complaint on how buggy the Google Toolbar was in Internet Explorer.

Google announced they have released a stable version of the Google Toolbar 6 for IE. Version 6.1.1518.856 is the stable release, which removes the beta tag from this toolbar.

Internet explorer users can download it at http://toolbar.google.com/. Improvements include:

  • Find bar is no longer a separate toolbar that overrides IE's Find feature
  • Word find and Highlight buttons are back
  • AutoFill works on most login pages, like the Gmail homepage

Forum discussion at Google Toolbar Help.
