I installed the Windows Live Toolbar and I noticed the Phishing filter icon
is NOT on the toolbar. Is this normal?

Windows XP Pro SP2 with IE7B2.

Windows Live Toolbar is a Beta. And you're using a Beta browser. FUBAR
is normal.

Uninstall all Beta products, or go whine about the Beta Blues in the
appropriate groups. This ain't one of them.

When the Phishing Filter is in use, IE will fill the address bar with red
for known phishing sites and with yellow for suspected phishing
sites. In both cases, the address bar will include text that explains
that the user should effectively either “stop†or proceed with “cautionâ€.
With IE7, most normal sites including those with “the lock†will not
have a color-filled address bar.

With Betas nothing is 'normal', although, often enough, a lot needs fixing.
File a bug report at the appropriate Beta website.
 
Thank you for the link Carey. I notice the "phishing filter" scanning at the
bottom of the web page when I browse from page to page in IE7B2. Shouldn't
there still be a Phishing icon on the toolbar?

"Today at the O’Reilly Emerging Technologies Conference, Microsoft Corp.
announced the availability of Windows Live™ Search beta"

For BETA ware, please contact the Author of such for fixes, as you
agreed to.

While a kid one of my sisters used to bring home the "class" guinea pig
to take care of during school breaks.

Darn thing did nothing but ate salid all day long. Later in life I
learned that they were a food staple in some cultures. Suppossedly, skin
them, put them on a BBQ and wala, good eating. Way more meat than a rat
so I say cool.

Sure, but it just a touch convoluted - one has to sign in with a
"Passport" - but read this website and it has both an explanation and a link
for IE7 bug reporting:
