And for anyone who doesn't want the hassle of the bloated Google site and just wants to use their search engine you can use:
http://www.google.com/accessibility/labs/search/

It is a very simple uncluttered page. And the accessibility tag has nothing to do with screen-reader accessibility. It was designed years ago when many web sites were written for specific browsers. That was the accessibility problem. It's no longer officially supported, but it's a very simple and clean easy to use Google search page.

Peter,

I do not mean to make light of your frustrations, but I just read a note on 
another list where someone was having trouble getting JFW to focus correctly on 
Google and switched to Window-Eyes because it
worked better.  It seems to me that there are some rough edges just now with 
all screen readers.  I have not noticed any particularly difference with Google 
and WE 8.1, but I'm still using IE 8.  Did you use the
screen readers link on Google to turn off some of the dynamic updating?  
Window-Eyes 8.1 isn't perfect but it fixed some things for me that make it 
worth using.  It would seem worth it to try to see if these other
problems can be resolved for you with a simple change.  What kinds of problems 
did you encounter, and what version of Internet Explorer were you using?

Best regards,

Steve Jacobson

I restored my system back to Window-Eyes 8.0; there are too many problems with 
window-Eyes 8.1 and Google to be useful.  Hopefully the next rev will be tested 
more fully before release.
