Get the Google Toolbar

Assuming that you are using a Windows computer and Microsoft's Internet Explorer version 5 or better (5.5 for the popup blocker), go to toolbar.google.com and download it. Review Google's Privacy Policy to be sure it's OK with you before you complete the installation.

[Mac users and those using older versions of Internet Explorer can use most of the functions described below by going to the Google Website.]

You'll find the Toolbar infinitely useful. It's like having a Google window permanently open. No matter what site you are visiting, you can do a quick search just by typing into the Toolbar's search window.

Use the "Options" button on the Toolbar to customize your Google Toolbar. One option that I've found very useful is the "Search Site" button, described below. [Another extremely useful option is the Popup Blocker, which doesn't make your job search easier, but it does get rid of a major nuisance while you are online. Find it by clicking on the Toolbar's "Options" button.
