Is it possible to modify the default Safari search engine from google.com to
google.co.uk?

Cheers

The latest, 0.41, is compatible through OS X 10.3.9 but crashes Safari on launch in Tiger. -- Mike Rosenberg <http://www.macconsult.com> Macintosh consulting services for NE Florida <http://bogart-tribute.net> Tribute to Humphrey Bogart Toyota Prius fans: Check out alt.autos.toyota.prius >> Stay informed about: Safari Modification

Hmmm, that's VERY odd, since I encountered the problem with Acid Search myself, then read it was a known issue, but clearly it doesn't affect everyone since your Mac is okay. -- Mike Rosenberg <http://www.macconsult.com> Macintosh consulting services for NE Florida <http://bogart-tribute.net> Tribute to Humphrey Bogart Toyota Prius fans: Check out alt.autos.toyota.prius >> Stay informed about: Safari Modification

Yup, works perfectly.

Of course others things are broken I'm really glad we had this discussion, because I just downloaded and reinstalled Acid Search and now Safari is working fine with it.

Hi, I'm sure that on my machine in my office (PC) I have already replied to Andy's excellent suggestion of using AcidSearch. However here on my machine at home ( G4 Mac ) no post is showing in the newsgroup. So, just in case the original for some reason did not appear, thanks once again to Andy. AcidSearch was perfect for what I was after and yes I am indeed running Tiger 10.4.1 Cheers Eric.
