I want to use the Search from the normal tool bar.... that gives the split
screen. Currently you can customize this to use several search engines. I
usually use MSN, but at times, I would like to click the "Next" button and
have the Google results while using the split screen.

Will this reg file work this way (and not mess up the current search
options)?

Thanks
