IE QuickFind
Making an internet search is even quicker than ever with IE QuickFind. Run it, hit Install and you're set to go! You can now access over 39 search engines by doing nothing more than typing your search query into Internet Explorer's address bar prefixed by the engine you want to use.

Example usage
If you wanted to search Google for "Planarchy" (minus quotes in this case, but you can quote if you want - remember, you're using a search engine so you can use any search syntax, eg. " ", +, -, AND, OR, and so on), you would type g Planarchy into IE's address bar and the results of your search appears in the current browser window. Want to search Google Groups? No problem, type gg My search string. There are 39 of these search engines (including services like dictionary.com, thesaurus.com and scientific research sites) within IE QuickFind, of which you can view in the list on the main window.

Cont...

The top 10 software titles for the first six months of the year were dominated by PlayStation 2 games. Sony's console had six games in the top 10, including Sony Computer Entertainment's Gran Turismo 4 in the top slot.

Nintendo had the second most games in the top 10. Game Boy Advance games held two positions with Pokemon Emerald at second place and Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap at seventh. The lone GameCube representative was Capcom's Resident Evil 4 in the eighth slot. But that tied Microsoft's entire Xbox contingent, with the tenth-place Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith lingering at the bottom of the list.

The only 2004 game to crack the top 10 was Take-Two Interactive's controversy-laden Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, which was released in October. The complete Top 10 consoles games of 2005 can be seen below.

TweakUI already does that. I have tons of search srtings programmed.
Being a new release, the developer should have added the new Registry entries for IE 7's search box too, then it'd be more temping to download, lol.

There were only 2 good browsers... Netscape 3x and Netscape 4x.
Hmmm, those were the days.

Opera 8.x is pretty close to perfection.

and good to see everyone stubborn enough to keep using the actual IE application is getting these sorts of features. if you like IE, why not use Maxthon?

close to perfection??? right ... being slow on large css2 based pages and not having html editor capabilities is far from perfection imho
#2.3 qrayzie on 01 Aug 2005 - 01:42
It's a browser, not an editor.
#2.4 tier0ne on 01 Aug 2005 - 08:14
Netscape 4? Oh, right, the browser that barely supported CSS and rerendered the page from scratch every time one resized the window.

its been available since IE5...not included with the browser, but downloadable from MICROSOFT as an addon, called QuickSearch.

It comes included in the Internet Explorer 5 web accessories.

Aww, and I thought this might have been the feature that searches a page as you type. Oh well.
#7.1 el22 on 03 Aug 2005 - 02:29
Same here

Use Firefox, it does what this program does AND has find-as-you-type.

In order to stay diplomatic, I'd say if Opera does this or not, but honnestly I haven't a clue.
