The Google Toolbar is available free of charge and includes these great features:

PageRank: See Google's ranking of the current page.
Page Info: Access more information about a page including similar pages, pages that link back to that page, as well as a cached snapshot.
Highlight: Highlight your search terms as they appear on the page; each word in its own color.
Word Find: Find your search terms wherever they appear on the page

New features are regularly added

NOTE: Google collects information through the toolbar when PageRank is enabled, but not if you've selected "Install Without Advanced Features."
