Hi Jason,
Try this: Click Start | Run and type:
"regsvr32 /i C:\Windows\Srchasst\srchui.dll"
"regsvr32 /i urlmon.dll"
If this did not help,
1. Log on to the computer by using an account with administrator
permissions.
2. Click Start, click Run, type %systemroot%\inf, and then click OK.
3. Locate the Srchasst.inf file.
4. Right-click the Srchasst.inf file, and then click Install. This
reinstalls the files that Search Companion uses.
NOTE: If you are prompted for the location of msgr3en.dll and your computer
came with Windows XP preinstalled, it is likely to be at C:\Windows\i386.
Type C:\Windows\i386 into the Copy Files From dialog and press OK.

When I click on the Search option from the windows start
button or from windows explorer, the Search Companion
tool bar is displayed on the left but it is completely
blank no matter how large the window is. Any ideas?
