Not to take credit for the answer, here's a link to an original post regarding the missing "Language Tools" link. Apparently, it has something to do with iGoogle getting a new design: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Web+Search/thread?tid=5e4a5de89208c08f&hl=en UPDATE: Still confused as "Language Tools" IS showing up in Internet Explorer along with "Advanced Search" right above it. So, this seems to be specific to Firefox, because both of those links no longer appear in my Firefox browser anymore.
