For the debianized mozilla, neither, I was running as non root and
assume I did not have write access to /var/lib/mozilla. as the
mozilla installed in ~/moz, I installed it as my uid so I have
full write access. I can try to install it as root and see what
happens.

in any case, that toolbar isn't quite as handy as being able
to search google from the url bar(in opera it has a dedicated search
box for the search engine). any ideas on that one?

thanks for the reply, sorry for the late reply, some crazy stuff
has been goin on at work this week.
