Q&A: MAKING GOOGLE MY DEFAULT SEARCH ENGINE? PROBLEMS.

Question by Hotspot:
Making Google my default search engine? Problems.
I have a wierd, local webpage as my default search engine. When I type in question, it takes me there automatically and is pretty useless for answering anything. I am used to Google, and I tried to find directions on how to make it my defaulted search engine, but even though I foloowed the directions, nothing works. I still keep getting my weird page.

Here are the instructions – I tried both of them, and neither one of them works:

Run regedit from your run menu and find this key :
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main

and find Search Page value and change it to google like this :
“Search Page”=”http://www.google.com”
“Search Bar”=”http://www.google.com/ie”

I do not want a search bar, so I just put in the searcha page value, restarted it, and nothing changed.

Then I tried these directions, but nothing showed up like it stated it would. (at http://www.google.com/options/defaults.html):

Internet Explorer

For Windows: Download this file to make Google the default search engine for World wide web Explorer versions 4.0 – 6.0. (Note: you will need Administrator privileges on your personal in order to install this file.)

The “search” button will bring up a Google search box down the left side of your browser.

The “Search The Web” menu option from the “Go” menu will take you to Google. For IE4 only, you can type “?

” in the URL box instead of a URL, and it will perform the search.

When you click on the above link, IE will ask you whether to open or to save the file. Choose “open” to immediately make the changes (i.e., to make Google your default search engine for the actions described above). Choose “save,” and then look at the file under Notepad, if you’d rather analyze what the file does first. Be aware that you will probably have to reboot your system to make the change go into effect (even if your personal does not tell you so).

By default, Google will show results in the search channel window, leaving the main window for browsing. If you like seeing the search results in the main window, try this file instead.

I did, and when it stated RUN, I ran it. Nothing changed.

Help! Thanks.

Thanks but I do not want to make it my homepage, just my default search engine. It is not hijacked, it just happened to be the default that my provider gives you when you subscribe.

But thanks, I will try “cakefruit”‘s instructions. They sound easy enough, if they work ).

HOW DOES GOOGLE ANALYTICS TRACK UNIQUE USERS?

admin — Tue, 01 May 2012 11:09:02 +0000

Question by drurin:
How does Google Analytics track one-of-a-kind users?
I am using Google Analytics and I wonder how it technically works to track one-of-a-kind users by just entering the Java-Script snippet at the bottom of each HTML-page. Also: Does Google Analytics somehow discount for bots and robots from e.g. search engines which should not be counted as “real traffic”?

——————————————

Answer by Yu Po
Google use a special id in the code specific for country and member of Analytics program:
_uacct = “UA-xxxxxx-1″;

When some users browser ask some page to download, it sends to addressed server ‘hello’.

Then the server sends asked page to user, but rendered page on unload sends ‘hello’ to Google (urchin code!), saying ‘page AA was downloaded by browser YY on server ZZZ’.

Google’s database states ‘ok, guys! I’d put in everything. See you later!’

This way we have detailed analytics for our html-pages, as Javascript language has more than 30 parameters describing users monitor, color depth, OS, local time, server, browser, etc.

Of course, Google sees who visits page, as each search bot has its own name. Google doesn’t count that as a real traffic.

Question by AC86:
Can I use google Search Results ?
I would like to know if I can use Google Search Results for my own search engine.Not the custom search you can built,instead I want to build a search engine using Google search results.Is there a Code ?Is it Legal ?Thx

——————————————

Answer by Ankit Jain
Of course you can…
Btw, even Google crawls the Web and does so.. you can crawl all web pages in World wide web and build your own search engine.

Moreover, the content Google lists in the search results is not what they they do not own… and i feel it’s perfectly fine to build your own engine on their resutls.
Still, i feel go and read Google – Terms and conditions ( http://www.google.co.in/intl/en/privacy_terms.html )

Q&A: HOW CAN I GET GOOGLE CO-OP (CUSTOM SEARCH ENGINE) TO INCLUDE YAHOO! ANSWERS’ INDIVIDUAL CATEGORIES OR PAGES?

admin — Thu, 16 Feb 2012 11:09:38 +0000

Question by Tao:
How can I get Google Co-op (custom search engine) to include Yahoo! Answers’ individual categories or pages?
I’m trying out Google Co-op, Google’s new custom search engine product. Basically it lets you create your own search engine including Web sites or individual pages that you select.

I have been experimenting with it and one thing I cannot figure out is how to include only one category of YA or individual pages (ie, specific questions, my profile, my answers, my ideal answers, my questions, etc) included in the search engine.

Has anyone tried this out?

——————————————

Answer by tripleplay181

maybe if u ask in the computers
or world wide web section someone will know
sorry

IN IE6 I ENTER A URL WHICH IS NOT VALID AT THE ADDRESS BAR, I GET BROUGHT TO SEARCH.LIVE.NET INSTEAD OF GOOGLE

admin — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 20:12:13 +0000

Question by NotSweetOnGates:
In IE6 I enter a url which is not valid at the address bar, I get brought to search.live.net instead of google
Google is my default search engine. Works fine with a search at the address bar. My problem is since last night tuesday, whenever I enter(guess) a url in the address bar, instead of doing a search, I am now taken hostage by search.live.com.
I did not install any updates, my anti-spyware is up to date(spybot S&D, ad-aware, firewall, and two on the web searches including Cleaner). Nothing is detected. I have been at this for quite a few years and this is the first time I have Been owned without a trace anywhere to be seen. No hosts files, nothing at the moment. I tried resetting with a few scripts I use for helping ppl out with spyware etc and nothing… It only occurs in the address bar. Wrong address=search.live.com
Help plz?

Answer by sean20_007
hmmm weirddd…. try using spyware terminator

it has this feature that of it encounters spyware that is not registered in their database as a threat or if its secure then it will be listed down in another tab (unknown spyware to be exact). it wil give you a bit of information on what program uses it so you might be able to pinpoint the spyware that hijacked your ie…

if you are sort of techy use hijackthis its a more advanced antispyware program but its sorta confusing

i recommend switching to opera or mozilla firefox as your browsers. i personally recommend opera coz its a balance between security and functionality unlike firefox
