    Google taskbar search box


    Before we upgraded to 64 bit WIN 7, we were running xp pro. I was able to install a google search box that was put into my taskbar. when i would type something, it would give me options of what to do with my search. There were options...dictionay, thesaurus, feeling lucky...and things like that. It was very useful. Where can I find that for my new workstation?

    Ahh...it's called the "Deskbar"...is it available running IE8? I read there is a "workaround" using IE7. Can this be achieved?

Pin Google Search box to taskbar
in General Discussion

Would like to pin a Google search edit box to taskbar like I was able to do for Internet Explorer search. Please see attached screen shot showing what I would like to do. Not add shortcut to Google desktop - this will allow floating searchbox that cannot be pinned to taskbar. Thanks
