Hi, I had a trojan virus that changed my search window
(the one that usually pops out from the left side of
I.E.). Is there a way to change it back?

Thanks,
Steve

I don't know exactly what you mean, but if you look in the following key in
your registry it might help

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main

The "search bar" and "search page" may need changing

The following may help. These registry settings should be the correct ones

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main]

"Search Page"="http://home.microsoft.com/access/allinone.asp"

"Search Bar"="http://home.microsoft.com/search/lobby/search.asp"

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\SearchURL]

""="http://home.microsoft.com/access/autosearch.asp?p=%s"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Search]

"SearchAssistant"="http://ie.search.msn.com/{SUB_RFC1766}/srchasst/srchasst.
htm"
