Hi All, I just read, not so new news that Opera will be switching from their own engine to webkit to save development costs and contribute to chromium project.

Not to self promote LBSE, but just incase someone still finds it difficult to add google CSE or any CSE to your Browser, so that you can search directly from address bar, here is the link. I have explained it along with screenshots.

I went here: https://www.google.com/cse/ and created a custom search engine to get better results when searching Mint/Ubuntu sites. The result works very well, although it is only presented as a piece of html that is supposed to be embedded into a website. Well I don't want to do that, I want to us...

Hello,

I use Quick Heal Internet Security on my office XP machines. Recently I got a notification about 'Malware Alert! The risk of image searches on Google and Bing'

Is it to be taken seriously or is it a marketing strategy.

Any thoughts about it?

Thanks
