  • IE6 autosearch problem

    I'm having problems with my IE6 where if I type in a item and let IE6 do an autosearch on it...the only thing I get is a page not found error. I took alook at the settings in IE but didnt find anything. Suggestions?
    Why is it called tourist season, if we can't shoot at them?

    Dunno I don't use the auto search. Tried clearing out your cache??? Turning of any proxys or auto dectection.

      Autosearch opens an MSN search page, so it's also possible that MSN is just being flakey right now. If your settings are good, wait a couple of hours and try it again. Does it happen if you search just for one particular thing, or does it happen no matter what you search for?

        Make sure <code>127.0.0.1 ie.search.msn.com</code> doesn't exist in c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

        Better yet, point it to Google.
