Start Search Internet Engine Changed

It's either something you did, like install something off the internet that
also installed Earthlink as the search provider, or you you have malware.
Always choose custom when installing programs, never automatic.

Hi,

Because you allowed some plugin that you installed to change it. Click the
dropdown to the right of the search box and select the option to "change
search defaults". You will be able to change it back to Live Search here.

It had to be one or the other. Either that or someone used your computer and
installed it. Bottom line, something got installed on your computer that
also changed your search provider.
