Search programs

  • I have recently suffered the crash of my C drive. On it I had downloaded from the net a meta search engine program. When I asked a question it would query Alta Vista, Lycos, Yahoo and about a dozen other search engines. The trouble is I have forgotten the name of this marvellous device or how I ever downloaded it. Can you help me with a name and how to locate it? Also, I had downloaded NetSonic on the promise that it would to speed up my searches. Can you give me any details to retrieve this program too?

    There are many programs which can do what you have asked. I suggest that you visit www.download.com, click the ‘Internet’ link, and then ‘Browsing Companions’. Here you will find a list of programs that do what you have asked. Regarding NetSonic, it can be downloaded from www.web3000.com.

Hi there. If this is the first time you are posting a comment it will not appear immediately, but needs to be approved. This is necessary in order to combat comment spam. However, once you have submitted a comment (which is subsequently approved) you do not need to go through this process again - the site remembers who you are and auto-approves your comments. Nifty eh? Anyway, sorry about the inconvenience that this may cause for your first comment post.
