Question about 'Get Find/Search to Look Where You Want'

I have a question about Get Find/Search to Look Where You Want:

Since upgrading to IE6..my search/find no longer works(will not perform a search) no matter the parameters. What must I do to regain this feature? I am running Windows ME on 500mz processor with 512MB ram.

Hi Fred,
If you have installed Micro$oft's power toy, TweakUI, open it and click the Desktop tab. Scroll down to about the fifth item from the bottom "Search Results" and place a check in the square. Click Apply>OK. If you have never installed TweakUI download it from the following site:

....but never if you have any problems try to uninstall IE6 and go back to IE5.5 following Microsofts official directions. You'll have to reinstall WinME at the end.!!!

Hi I also had problems with search after upgrading to IE6. I was able to get back to IE5 using the following command from MS web site: "drive:\program files\internet explorer\ie uninstall\w2kexcp" /u /q I still did not get back search from the start menu. Hope this helps you get back to IE5. AK
