| Quit crying... You guys are all a bunch of whiners... what's the big prob w/ searching from the address bar? If you simply set it to use yahoo or google rather than MSN's TOTAL crap search, it works perfectly. type in something that ends in ".___", & it goes directly to the site (unless it doesn't exist, then it will search instead... very useful if you type .com when the site you are looking for is .org, better than getting a 404 then having to back out , go to search & search ANYWAY). type in a word or phrase, & it will display the page from your chosen search engine as if you navigated to their site first. Yes, I realize search toolbars do the same, but why have YET ANOTHER useless toolbar taking up valuable desktop real estate when you already have an existing bar capable of the EXACT same thing... It's like having two identical shortcuts next to each other on your desktop, a total waste. The problem is you people are afraid of progress, like people who set XP up to look & respond like 98, because they are "used to it". LAZY! It is only going to make it harder for you to learn when the next O.S. comes out. Learn to use current technology! If you weren't all so A.R. about being set in your antiquated ways & bothered to learn about NEW, USEFUL features, you wouldn't have to badmouth things simply because you don't understand them instead of actual, valid reasons. |
