Question Concerning BING....
« on: August 07, 2012, 11:39:04 am »
Howdy to ALL....  :+}
     Just had to buy a NEW PC....  H/P with Bukoos of Power n Memory.  It came set up with the BING toolbar.  I use Yahoo as my Home Page and always rely on Google which I keep in my favorites for searching.  Is keeping the BING toolbar good or not?  Never used it in the past.  Thanks for some info.  Danny  :+)

I've never been a big BING fan. I uninstall it on any computer I work on but it is a personal preference :D

I virtually NEVER use BING...I would dump it if it were on my 'puter.
Toolbars are no good to me for doing anything but taking up space.

Ther is a program available FREE for cleaning out preinstalled stuff on a new 'puter called "DeCrapifier'...

Search and see if you want to use it.

GB, I think that program name is so very apt, new computers come with so much crap on them they should only be sold with a good supply of toilet paper  ;D ;D
It's all a case of "Mind over Matter",  The Government don't Mind, and I don't Matter.

 Well I can see more Negs. about Bing than Positives, so I am getting closer to uninstalling Bing.  Now....Would anyone say Yes to Google?  I have gotten very use to using it for any and all searches.  Wonderful program, but still am in a learning level about most everything.  Tks again....  Danny  :+}

Danny I have used Google as my search engine since it was introduced and I do a lot of searching and have NO problems with it at all.

Google is my favorite too.  Never a problem and simple to use.

I guess i am the oddball as I have used Webcrawler (www.webcrawler.com) for years.  It scans the whole web, including Google, Bing, Yahoo etc.  If it's on the web, Webcrawler will find it.  Never had a ounce of trouble with it.
