search companion

[Cathy]

Everytime I open internet explorer, my search companinon
has changed back to the regular version, that is white
with options that include what search engine that you
want to use. How do I make sure that everytime I open
Internet Explorer that the search companion that I have
chosen remains there? Please help

Hi Cathy,

Have you used any Tweakers, applied a policy via gpedit, etc? If not, make
your choice, then run this edit:

Save Settings on Exit (Line 54)

To use the Regedit: Save the REG File to your hard disk. Double click it
and answer yes to the import prompt. REG files can be viewed in Notepad by
right clicking on the file and selecting Edit.

If that doesn't help:

Old Style Search Engine On/Off (Line 49)

Or...

Use TweakUI, Explorer:
