Web browser help

So I just installed AIM on my computer and well everything is f'ed up, my google search is now AIM search and every time I get a link in AIM it opens Opera. I can't seem to find where to fix either someone please help, also I want to remove the yahoo search from the bottom of my tool bar on Vista.

Thanks

use aim ad hack to remove all that crap that comes with aim

if not, use aimpro (it doesn't contain crap with it)

or don't use aim at all

 

OK I still have that ridiculous AIM search.

 

after using aim ad hack?
hm...it's suppose to remove all that shizz

 

Yeah I guess so when I type a word/search in the top toolbar instead of doing a google search it does a aim search how do I fix that?

 

internets explorer?

maybe check... tools>internet options>search (middle of window)>settings

 

Can't you remove the add-in from Add/Remove programs?

If it's not listed....regedit

also, don't ever install AIM or any version of it, bad idea in the first place. Actually, anything AOL related is a bad idea

If you REALLY need to use AIM, use the web based version: https://my.screenname.aol.com/_cqr/login/login.psp?seamless=novl&sitedomain=sns.aimexpress.aol.com&lang=en&locale=us&authLev=2&siteState=ver%3a1%252c0%26ac%3aAE%26ld%3aaimexpress.aim.com%26uv%3aAIM%26lc%3aen-us%26ud%3aaol.com%26br%3aWebSuite-AimExBeta

edit:

for your search deal, open regedit and dig down to:

HKey_Local_Machine>SOFTWARE>Microsoft>Internet Explorer>Search

Look for the key called "Search Assistant"

 

I actually like the aim pro.

 

uninstall AIM and get TRILLIAN

 

Then your problems sound like a personal problem lol.

 

Pidgen works well also. It supports more than one type of account as well.

 

firefox....
