I forgot to mention and I am not blubbering either.... I don't happen to like getting the entire page when I open my gmail plugin. As many others I was perfectly happy with the way it work previously. If it isn't broken you don't need to fix it and besides like I stated previously we should have the option of using the new version or not most other like yahoo mail for example gives you that option on the versions you want to use. Is Google in its updating technology not able to figure out how to set an option like that up? LOL!
