It doesn't seem to be an easy way to reset the default search engine to use in search in the address bar. Am I missing something?
And also, why can Yahoo turn this function is the default search engine?
Hi gcraighammond, I just noticed that you had a problem, a right-click. To change the search engine, click with the left button on the icon and a list of search engine options would fall down.
Yet once, it doesn't until you move the search box back to the toolbar AND to exit to customize the view.

and before buying anything check with your computer manufacturer to find out what drivers are available for the operating systems that will apply to your model number computer
