).

I've been thinkin that it might be one of the files that was previously
installed with a trail version of office. If I knew what files were
installed then I can remove it manully. I had a problem with the
installation all so where outlook wouldn't start; the message requested a
oem file so I search and found the file that was installed with Office 2007
trail edition.

IE7 tries to install research component
Hi
I am hoping someone can help me with this: I really never used the search in
IE7 be fore now that I got Office 2003. Anyway, if I choose the Search in
IE7 it starts the Windows Installer trying to install some needed component.
This happens with all the programs of the Office Suite. I am hopping that
someone can at least point me to a place that I can get information about
installing the component.
A novas I am

For quite a few people it's by installing Messenger Plus, whose ads for
malware don't identify the malware as such and try to convince you that you
owe it to the author. See also:

Don't ever do a "default" install of anything. Always choose Custom and see
what else is being carried along. Don't install any extras you're not sure
of.

For 2007 if you choose not to install the Office Desktop Search and you have
registered your Office software, there are no futher prompts to install the
Desktop search.

Hi J,Are you talking about the Command bar button that looks like two books
Hi J,
Are you talking about the Command bar button that looks like two books with
a spy glass next to them and is labeled "Research" - This is the Research
Explorer Bar that comes with Office 2003/2007. You can safely install this
to Internet Explorer. You may like to check Start>Settings>Control
Panel>Add/Remove Programs to see if there is a repair option or if it has
been properly installed. (you may have deleted the folder where it was
originally installed to)
Alt+Click is not a windows short-cut. To open links in a new tab use
Ctrl+click. Some other program is mapping that key shortcut (on my machine
it is Roboform,, a form filling addon)
Regards.
