| 64 Bit Vista Home Permium | Search Engines I had Google as my Search Engine. Reset my computer and wound up with someting called "Bing" by MSN. How can I get rid of it and back to where I was? Hate it when these systems change things. What I DON"T know about computers would fill a swimming pool. |

| Windows 7 Ultimate x64 | Re: Search Engines On second reading, I think this might be what you want. Internet Explorer Search Box  If it is, then click the arrow next to the maginfing glass --> click "manager search providers"  Then highlight google --> then click set as default in the bottom corner |

| 64 Bit Vista Home Permium | Re: Search Engines Thanks for your response but neither has worked. With the tool bar drop down, the Links, Status and MSN Toolbar are checked. Google Toolbar is listed but when I check it nothing happens. The MSN Toolbar has an error and I am unable to fix it. |

| 64 Bit Vista Home Permium | Re: Search Engines I did get rid of BING and MSM toolbar. Google is listed as a toolbar but I am unable to get it to show up after I click on it. I have an old laptop and I am able to switch in and out of the Google toolbar, no problem but that is XP not Vista. Damn I hate Vista. |
