I'm using XP Home, IE6, with all the updates and service packs.
I used to be able to type a word in the address bar, and IE would go to a
website, or do a search. For example, if I typed Zellers, it would go to
www.zellers.com (or whatever). If I typed digital cameras, it would provide
a list of possibilities.
Now if I type Zellers, it changes the text in the address bar to something
like "http:////? zellers and I get an "unable to locate server" message
page.
I run AdAware regularly, have ZoneAlarm at fairly high security, and have
EZTrust antivirus running. I checked through my internet options to ensure
that the search options are selected properly. I tried to Customize my
search options through the toolbar Search button, but the only option in
there is an MSN search.
Incidentally, typing just a word or two in the address bar in Netscape works
just fine, so obviously I've messed up something in IE.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
TIA
