Re: IE 7 and Google Search

Google's preferences seem to have some fluidity to them. I keep Safe Search turned off, yet periodically the moderate Safe Search turns itself on.

Re: IE 7 and Google Search

Well ... I wish they would regain some stability in their settings. Their help pages state that we lose our preferences when we routinely delete cookies, which makes sense.

What doesn't make sense to me is that when I looked at my preferences they were set to *not* list query suggestions. It took saving the currently set preferences in order to make that one work properly (as Cabal suggested).

FWIW, after reading the thread that NanDog referenced, I did some more searching myself and ran across this article

»searchengineland.com/080825-201142.php

on Google "Suggest" (dated today) that says:

"More and more people should see it appear, with a full rollout expected by this Friday."

I found a Google Group that has some discussion of this "feature" being rolled out, but I don't have a Google account and don't want one, so I can't post there.

If anyone else already has a Google account and is interested in joining this "group" you might consider letting them know about the "bug" in the preferences that turns the "query suggestion" feature on even when the settings are set to "do not provide query suggestions in search box." I tried an email contact I found that was used when this was in beta, and got a boilerplate response directing me to the beta group that no longer exists.

This happens to me when I clear the cookies in IE. After clearing them all Google preferences are reset to default.
