    Yes, interesting. I don't even use their search page anymore. With all the doubt over their toolbar, that put me off. (I didn't download it by the way)
    I use www.alltheweb.com now and seems to do an equally good job. :rolleyes:

    Despite the quality of Google searches having definitely dropped lately, when I'm looking for something obscure I still have to use Google because no other search engine indexes so many pages, or has the lovely Google cache for reading the dead ones.
