    MicroSofts new search - live.com is live - and it sucks

    The results are good - but the interface sucks - I can work it out but most users just wont even bother. Its easier to stick with Google.

    As usual MS have tried too hard - KISS!

    I thought Start.com would have been better.

    but I'm biased:

              For instance - The 1st thing I did was click the middle mouse button to open the link in a new tab - as always works in FireFox - not on Live.com.

              The scroll bars are not standard - ok for you and me - but my mother for example wouldnt know what to do.

              etc etc

                The scroll bars definitely suck... when I was playing with them Mozilla crashed! This is very unusual, I'd say Mozilla has crashed less than 10 times since I got this laptop 8 months ago.

                Most people won't have to worry about the web interface when it's integrated into 'doze.

                    I don't like the frame thing either. It restricts the main content.

                    Visted links should also be a different color.

                                Your "for instance" isn't what "most users" would have done.

                                        What's the problem? Is it Bill Gates apathy. I have used it and it's great.

                                        Also helps that I have got at least three #1 spots and at least 9 first page spots and I my search engine traffic from it is currently 50% of MSN and rising fast. Google sucks and I get approx. 2% of traffic.

                                        Hey, my decision is based on logic and commonsense results. No emotion here because I don't hate Bill Gates. He deserves to be rich...he made it happen for you guys by making computers accessible. You don't have to like him or kiss his ass daily...just a bit of respect for the nerd.
