How to select different search engine from the MSN Search Service Option Sierras 09-16-2005

Please log in for more thread options


From the general tab, there is a selection to allow "Other Seach
Service".

I can't get this feature to work. I would like to be able to search
the web with Google by just using the search box and hit enter. (The
same way Opera and Firefox work)

The example given to make this work is to use something like:
http://search.msn.com/results.aspx?q=$w


But I've tried similar codes for Google and all I get is the Google
search page without the keyword entered in the box.

How can I get this feature to work??

Thanks
