[gui-talk] In IE 7, Control E has changed for me

[Nimer Jaber]

Yes, you do have to change your default search provider. It is somewhere 
in internet options. I am sorry I can't be of more assistance, as I am 
currently using Linux, and not internet exploder. If you do a search for 
changing default search provider though, I am sure you will figure it out.

Thanks
