I've been in the process of updating, cleaning and reformating my home computer.<br />While I'm doing ok at all this, I'm in no way a guru at it.<br />I'm down to a couple of bugs and hope to have them in control soon.<br /> <br />I was spoiled by an old shareware search engine (Webferret)that I won't be able to use without a complete new download. The old shareware version was awesome but the new version isn't nearly as good.<br />What made it so good is that it used several different engines. It listed them by popularity.<br />And the best part, it laid the first 500 results all in one window! It was clean and simple.<br /><br />May I get your recommendations on a simular program please. And please, I'm not into spam and popups.<br />Thanks :)

I've seen webferret, but never used it.<br /><br />I usually use google, sometimes will try anotherone if google comes up short of what I'm looking for.

Hi,<br /><br />Google would get my vote anyday.<br /><br />Just one word of warning don't install the Google Tool Bar on your browser. When installed on the browser it constantly runs in the background taking up resource.<br /><br />Just bookmark the Google search engine page and open whenever needed.<br /><br />Cheers<br />Andrew

Dogpile.com will list the top returns from several search engines, sounds similar to webferret. That's all I use!
