#11
hi guys,
I still see "Get to google faster" etc etc... anyone else still with this issue on IE11?
I just checked (not logged into Google).
I don't see the annoyance any more (I forgot about it, actually)
Try clearing your browser cache and another other browser caches (web slices, saved sites).
Interent Explorer - options, general tab - delete button.
Make the selection, but be aware of cookies keeping your login information and also the password cache - those you might NOT want to clear.
IT seems as though google got the word and stopped the practice.
Could you grab the URL form your address bar and post it here?
I'll go to the same site and see what it shows on my IE.
What is DuckDuckGo?
Have you tried clicking the X to dismiss it instead of answering sure or no thanks
Those look odd as well (sure | No thanks), when I did see the bar, they were well spaced and I think they were blue links.
The bar itself might have been yellow..I don't recall though.
Sanity check - you are running IE, yes.
That's all I run so if it's FF or Opera, or Chrome ... I'm not the best qualified or equipped to help.
there you go

Duck duck go? it's my fav search engine.... more private than Google. which I still use for work...
of course I have tried dismissing the X and I keep getting it.
to be honest it's even more weird.
at home, I still get what I have attached here BUT not the one with the blue background. at work I get them both instead.
by the way, I have shot this small video where you can see what happens after doing a search and then you go and do F5 on this computer, since is not easy to explain without seeing it.
check here, just a small clip > https://www.dropbox.com/s/3dgvjul9iq...aster.mp4?dl=0
btw don't watch it via dropbox facility, looks upside down for some reason, just download it locally and play it with MPC classic or media player, should look OK.
Hi,
We already know what you see there no need for a video,
It's a google thing pushing google search nothing special about it annoying yes but anything we can do about it no
I would suggest contacting google but all they will say if anything at all will be to use another search if you don't want to see the message
Bing search page will have a similar message I believe :)
And also DuckyDuckyGo
Cheers.
Thanks,
I used the link provided but did not get the bar you see. I thought there might have been something in the URL, but alas there wasn't.
I was not logged into Google, but you mentioned it didn't matter if you were logged in or not.
For the record, I don't allow any browser to store much (no web slices, only a few cookies, etc) and I delete history on exit.
You could try renaming the IE cache and let it build a new one, but back up your data first.
I'm not sure how that would affect other things (password cache, cookie cache) - they're all related and one might be connected in a way I'm not certain.
Use caution or skip the suggestion.
The other thing is DuckDuckGo might be caching things for you. That will be your task to investigate - I'm DuckDuckGo illiterate.
edit: the dropbox link just keeps spinning - could be my slow connection. Don't worry about trying to get it somewhere else. I think I understand the issue. The F5 (refresh) comment - why is that pertinent? I know - it's in the video ... but some people won't download stuff from personal online storage as a precaution (you don't know me, and I don't know you) - at any rate, it's best to try and explain here so more members will provide suggestions.
