| | Search Engine Hi, I just install IE8 on my laptop, and when it came time to set-up the search engine, I told it to use my current set-up, but I just lost the Live Search, and everytime that I try to install it back I get a weird website called BING, which feels like the Live Search site has somehow being hacked. Is there a way to get back the Live Search -- Thank You in Advance Merci a l'avance Martin |

| | Re: Search Engine But I still can not configure IE8 to use Live Search which I know and trust instead of something that has the name of sound, and is probably not worth it at all I would like to know how to go to Live Search, because everytime that I type http://search.live.com I end up at BONG and the adress in the the bar says that I am not where I want to be, I am ending up at www.bong.com So I have to beleive that http://search.live.com as being hacked somehow by hacker(s), and are probably trying to steal personal information "Richard Urban" <richardurbanREMOVETHIS@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:efVRJYT8JHA.200@xxxxxx Quote: > Many right now are giving Bing rave reviews.
