MSN Toolbar 2.0.2 with tabs Released


Recommended Posts

Ok, using what Aokromes gave us:

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=$w

works with just plain searches. When you try to search with quotation marks and plus signs and commas though, it doesn't work right. For example, when I try searching for:

"Red Tide"

this is what the search results page says I searched for:

%22 Red+Tide%22

If I search for:

Red+Tide

or

Red + Tide

respectively, the search results page shows that I searched for these:

Red%2BTide

Red+%2B+Tide

Use this Search String instead and all those other fancy searches should work.

I need HELP. I was using the new MSN Search Toolbar Suite with the TABS, etc... v.2.0.2 for the last few days. Yesterday, I had to restore my system to an earlier date which worked fine but MSN Search started giving error message for not being able to load the config file. I then, rolled back the restore but for some reason, MSN Search version was converted to 1.0.2217 I believe and now neither I can use the Desktop Search nor am able to install the new version. Whenever I try to install, it says that I have to uninstall the previous version but ADD/REmove is unable to install. I tried everything including removing all the key entries in registry, etc... but no luck!

Does anybody know a trick to force the new Search Toolbar to install without checking the old version and trying to uninstall the old version (in my case old version does not work so I am without my desktop search that I really got used to!)

Thanks for any help you can provide!!!!! PLEASEEEE!

I've downloaded the newest version and my searches above now work properly. Now that I've gotten the search part to how I like it and have now replaced Google Toolbar, I'm having problems with the tabs. Whenever I open a new tab, the screen flashes for a second and after the flash, the IE window is in ?restore down? form, but still the same size as if it were maximized. I would like it if the tab problem is fixed so that there is no screen flash and the IE window stays maximized. Also, a ?Search Site? function like Google Toolbar would be nice.
