BrowserPlus defaults the search engine to search.yahoo.com even when I set my search engine it to google or bing in my safari 5 preferences?
after making several attempts to set the browser default search engine it goes back to yahoos search page when lookups are performed.
I finally decide to uninstall browserplus via system prefs and it still doesn't uninstall even though the icon no longer shows in
my plugin view of systems preferences??
Any thoughts on how to (if I have to) do a CLEAN manual remove of browserplus from my mac?
BrowserPlus does not change search engine settings, nor any other user preferences. If you want to verify this yourself, the code is all open source and can be found at
http://github.com/browserplus/platform. If you don't think that the uninstall has actually worked, you can manually remove the following directories:
~/Library/Application\ Support/Yahoo!/BrowserPlus (the BrowserPlus platform itself)
~/Library/Internet\ Plug-Ins/BrowserPlus* (the browser plugin needed to talk to the platform)
~/Library/PreferencePanes/BrowserPlusPres.prefPane (the system preferences pane)
