IE7 fix: Search toolbar not working
Symptom: When using the IE7 Search Toolbar the text %s is populated into the search field of a Search Provider instead of the search text entered by the User.
Fix: Reinstall your search providers.
Click on the drop down arrow to the right of the Search Pane, then select "Get Search Providers".
Click on the link for each provider that you want to use, then select "Replace Provider". If the Provider is not already installed, the "Replace Provider" option will disappear from the Add Search Provider window.
If you previously used Sean Alexander's registry script to add a slew of Search Providers, all the entries created by the script will be broken. This is because the Wildcard has been changed from %s to {searchTerms}. You'll need to edit the original registry file to replace %s with {searchTerms} then remerge the file, or edit the registry manually.
