AltaVista Toolbar Launches with Translation

This season seems to be the summer of toolbars. HotBot, Infospace, and Ask Jeeves all launch toolbars. Lycos launches its Sidesearch. Google upgrades its toolbar. So now its AltaVista's turn, and the AltaVista toolbar has some nice features. It does require IE 5+ and Windows 95+. It installs like Google's within the IE browser under the other bars. It has the popular AltaVista translation option right on the toolbar and is highly customizable. It has site search and direct access to AltaVista's Web, news, images, audio, and video databases. It also has dictionary, calculator, time, conversion, weather, and other popular information options. It even includes a pop-up blocker, like Google's Toolbar 2.0.
