To change the Search Companion and address bar search to Google, you
must disable the Search Companion, change the AutoSearch URL, and then
re-enable Search Companion.

To disable the Search Companion feature and use the Classic Internet
Search feature open Internet Explorer, click the Search button on the
toolbar. Click Change Preferences, and then click Change Internet search
behavior. Click With Classic Internet Search, and then click OK. Restart
Internet Explorer for the changes to take effect.

To change the autosearch URL, open the Search sidebar again and click
Customize. Then click AutoSearch settings and select "Google Sites".

To re-enable the Search Companion feature, click Customize on the Search
bar. Click Use Search Companion in the Customize Search Settings dialog box,
and then click OK. Restart Internet Explorer for the changes to take effect.

Add Google as Primary Search (Line 18)
