For Lycos you need this format! launch 'http://search.lycos.com/default.asp?loc=searchbox&tab=web&query=alter'
Kartoo use some type of java input part of the html page forcing you to input in the search box. The flash page are a different story your best guess is better than mine!

So far it works ok with Google. Yesterday I tried Kartoo and Lycos with no success. Just tried Yahoo - you have to be specific with the address and change 'q' to 'p': launch 'http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=Alerter' Esbjörn MikeB wrote: >The string you pass to the launch command for Google search.
