So I have always seen Google push FireFox as the browser it supports with it's toolbar.

Seems they have now moved to Internet Explorer, have Google and Mozilla fallen out?

Not sure. I think it is a push by MS and part of their new ad campaign. MS recently partnered with Sun Java and now offers the MSN Toolbar as part of the Java installation. Pretty interesting since Sun is behind Open Office, a direct competitor to MS Office. MS seems to be jumping in bed with anybody lately. Is MS finally wising up a bit?

What's odd, is why Google would not now partner with itself, ie; Chrome.

That's another good point.

Maybe they are teaming up to finally finish off Yahoo
