Well now... Just installed Google Toolbar (GT) in IE and I'm getting now starting to see this issue. It appears that my theory was correct.
In IE, GT overwrite's the title attribute of elements it can autofill with the message we've all come to know and love ;) (unless the element already has it's title attribute set to something, then GT leaves it alone). When searching for error messages, Validate prefers an element's title attribute above all else. So if an invalid form element has it's title attribute set to something (it could be anything, doesn't have to specifically be GT's message) that is what you will see for that element's error message. This can easily be remedied by making Validate prefer the options object over the element's title attribute (and since GT doesn't mess with element's that *already have* title attributes, you have nothing to worry about there). Interestingly, this issue does not appear at all in the Firefox version of GT. You get the same effect, but it's somehow accomplished without messing with the element's title attribute.
