Address bar is not searching any more.

[Masali]

(IE6 SP1)
In the past I could write anything in the adress bar (say
the word 'SAAB') then the address bar worked as search
engine and give me all related sites to the word 'SAAB'.
Now, however, if I write anything other than Exact website
address, I get the message 'cannot find ????'. What
happened to my explorer?? (in the tools-options-advanced I
was sure that the option of searching ability via the
address bar is chosen)

Thanks

Hi Masali - Try this. Download and run this .reg file from Kelly's site:
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/regs_edits/RestoreSearch2.REG See if that
straightens it out for you.

This worked like a dream! Thank you so much. I have tried just about everything I could think of and that was recommended. I now have a full complement of very good tools. Thanks.
