IS there a way to change what search page IE uses if the address doens't exist? Maybe by editing the registry? If so how?
Thanks

It shows you how to change the "page cannot be displayed" pages etc, which I think is what you mean.
I haven't tried the instructions though, and so I dont know how useful they are
Yum, registry.

no, i like the the page cannot be displayed errors. But before i used to get them when a site doesn't exist but now it uses the stupid msn search which i don't like
Well at least i could change it to google rather than msn
ty (although i hate editing the regestry as i know i will mess somthing up
)
Edit: Just checked and they all seem to be right anyway

have you tried tools > options > advanced and looking under 'search from address bar'?
