Launch mode... I click on DQSD, type in address/search criteria, press enter. Nothing fancy.
Try the sequence. I would be concerned that something was wrong with my personal setup but I just did a clean install on another system for client. Same results. Also, FYI. If Protected Mode is ON, attempting to "turn off" DQSD Toolbar in the Taskbar results on Windows Explorer being re-started. -----Original Message----- From: Kim Gräsman [mailto:kim.gras...@gmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, January 06, 2009 2:47 PM To: DQSD users mailing list Subject: Re: [DQSD-Users] Dave's Quick Search Opens extra BLANK PAGE window when web address is entered Hi James, Thanks, that's interesting. I can't really see why the regular URL launch should end up un-protected -- intuitively for me, it should be the other way around. You definitely should not have to disable PM. DQSD should run with system defaults, and PM is a good default. What's your launchMode?
