Choose Your Auto-Search Provider

To choose your AutoSearch provider, in the Customize Search Settings dialog, you can check Use one search service for all searches and then choose your favorite from a list. You can get even better results, however, by checking Use the Search Assistant for smart searching and then customizing the Search Assistant. You can specify which services will be used for specific search types (Web, e-mail, business) and in what order. Be warned: Your favorite search service may not be present. For example, Northern Light is there but disabled by default, and HotBot isn't available at all.
