Paul,
You probably have a version with it, and just need to open the special searches pulldown menubutton. If your version has it, a right click on the Googlebar brings up a menu which has the items you can place on the toolbar. Blogger in in the main "Google Searches" item. 

Without more detail regarding what version browsers you have, and what version googlebars, and what kind of customizations you have made... I'll take a "most common type" guestimate and guess you have firefox on both machines. 9.0 or better on the other machine. (First thing is to uninstall firefox 0.9.0, reinstall firefox 0.9.1 on the other if you haven't already done so.) If the customizations you made involved things that Googlebar actually did, like move buttons around or the settings for the keystrokes or country search settings etc... you won't lose those. 

As a followup to the comment above, it seems the toolbar has the same height problem as in 0.9.0. :( We will have to put css in that XPI-firefox distribution to correct that. The other thing is that copying a googlebar.jar over the one already there is not good. Not if you are using the version from update.mozilla.org. The only way to upgrade and be safe while doing so... is to uninstall googlebar and then reinstall, if using 0.9.0. Period. We will have to wait a while before we can update the u.m.o site because of this.
