Symptom: Google Toolbar seems to be a nice tool. It offers the following features:
* Browse by name - Type names instead of URLs in the browser address bar.
* Popup blocker - Block websites from opening pop-up windows.
* SpellCheck - Check spelling of text you type into Web forms.
* WordTranslator - Select English words and get them translated.
* AutoFill - Fill Web forms with a single click.
* AutoLink - Automatically link street address to maps.
However, Google Toolbar does take away space from your browser window to make a "bar" to displays icons for you to invoke its functions.
It is also consuming CPU and memory of your computer.
