typing "go *search string*" into IE


Recommended Posts

I quite often type "go" followed by a search string into the location bar in IE to search as its really easy, yet it uses MSN by default, which blows. Whats the registry entry to change it to use google instead?

Get PowerToys XP (or more specifically, TweakUI XP) from microsoft's site. There's tons of cool features, one of which allows you to add custom search prefixes (what you are referring to with the go thing). Just run TweakUI and goto the Internet Explorer section then Search. This probably just creates a registry setting somewhere, but I'm too lazy to search for it, besides its probably much easier to just use TweakUI.
