Another suggestion. Check out ixquick. The main reason is that they have the best privacy and cookie policy of any search/metasearch engine that I have found. http://us.ixquick.com/eng/protect_privacy.html They even act as a minimal IP address anonymizer not just of search but also of resulting links followed if one uses their automated highlighted results setting. As an aside their rankings are less easily gamable since they count the rankings of the different engines independently. That said, they don't include google in the engines they metasearch, and there is much that I like about google. I use both. -Paul
