This page didn't turn out right with Plain Text, but it was a description of the AVG Security Toolbar. Separate from the Navigation Toolbar, the AVG toolbar has it's own Yahoo search area that takes special precautions when viewing Web sites. ------------ Search the Web! This box allows a direct search through Yahoo! where the LinkScanner™ technology will flag any dangerous or questionable sites, safe sites will show on Yahoo! as usual. AVG checks search results in real time and any other web links you click on. You find out right away which links are safe and those that may cause you problems. Try it now! Type in a keyword and click Search button to search the web. ----------------------- Bill Reace Robyn Waymouth <waymouth@ihug.com.au> said: Hi Bill, I've hidden the AVG toolbar - I just can't see the point of it - and have therefore got rid of it's search box, and now have Google nicely reinstated as my search engine. I just wish AVG didn't impose on us in this way. I like in in all other ways.

It has a Yahoo Search box on it, that is separate from the Navigation toolbar.
