Again, I don't think this has anything to do with cookies. It appears that
the format and layout of the Search Settings page has been changed, at least
for IE 8. Interestingly, the search settings still seem to be accessible
with Firefox, but I don't like using it except to solve image captchas with
Webvisum.

See if your cooky settings have ben changed. Some times when you do a
windows update some settings get set back to default. You will find them
IE in tools menu, Internet options, privacy tab menu, advanced...

Hi listers. Using IE 8 with XP and JAWS 9, I discovered this morning that
Google.com has apparently changed its home page yet again, and now I am
unable to change my preferences on the search settings page. There seems
to be no way to turn Google Instant on or off like there used to be, nor
is there any apparent way to change the number of results per page from
the default value of 10. And I could not find any button to save the
search preferences. I tried with the virtual PC cursor on and off (Insert
Z), but nothing seems to work. I was last able to successfully change my
search settings a few days ago. I think I heard a brief message that my
browser was outdated and no longer supported or something like that, which
, of course is nonsense, because IE 8 is the latest bersion supported by
XP. Does anyone have any idea what's going on with Google? Are they
conspiring with MS to force us to upgrade to Windows 8? Is there any way
to change the number of results per page and insure that Google Instant is
turned off, short of switching to Firefox, which I despise and use only
for its Webvisum function? Thanks.
