I had Yahoo as my search for IE and sometime when surfing it was changed to some cheap search engine. Couldn't change it back, so I used AdAware to remove it. Now I can't search at all from the explorer bar. I just get this now, http:///?%20Search%, with a blank page. Anyone know how to fix this? Thanks

Maybe I have an answer

Regedit:
Try to change the default entry in
HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microsoft/Internet Explorer/SearchUrl
to the required URL
Also look in the key
HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microsoft/Internet Explorer/Main
There are also some entries refering to default urls.

Well after editing the reg and so forth, nothing seem to work. So I did a system restore and I'm back to normal.

Thanks for the help freedimension. :D
