Problem with IE 5.5 (search from address bar)

guys, this is probably a very simple problem, but I can't figure it out for the life of me. I alway search from the address bar in IE 5.5, just type the (?) and then the subject I want to search...well, something has changed in the browser because now when I do that, I just get sent to a website called www.search2k.com. It's very annoying. I've gone to Tool, Internet options, and checked that, and I have also clicked on the Search button in the tool bar and then clicked on customize. I've reset everything, and still when I do a search from the address bar, I get sent to that stupid web page. I'm pretty sure this just happened when I visited some webpage that sends a cookie or something...now I just don't know how to fix it.

Hi TorontoKid,

Here is how to fix it. You'll have to do a littl registry editing. Hope that helps.
