Luke_Wilbur Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 I downloaded Dogpile browser pluggin on Windows Internet Explorer. I wanted to see if it would save time doing my research. It now appears that when my browser cannot find a website address (404 error) the browser gets pointed to Frazoo. Here is an example. When I type dm4uwear.com this what I get: http://plugin.secureservicepack.com:7777/S....dmg4uwear.com/ I found a removal tool for the Adaware. Manual removal: Uninstaller available at http://plugin.secureservicepack.com/iepluginuninstall.exe The Uninstaller does not work.

Human Posted April 5, 2006 Report Share Posted April 5, 2006 Good, it barks. I haven't been to dogpile in ages, and I can't remember the owner’s name, but when the search engine was just starting out I remember the owner posting on the web page that "there are some sick people out there". I never replied to him, but I just smiled and thought to myself "Yeah!!! Welcome to the Internet". ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I downloaded Dogpile browser pluggin on Windows Internet Explorer. I wanted to see if it would save time on my research. So far the amount of relevant results are less than Google. Also I noticed a dog begins barking on my screen every time I use Google to Search.

Guest BlackSun_* Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 Dogpile's search toolbar is InfoSpace with a different brand name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke_Wilbur Posted April 12, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 I know that Dogpile.com, WebCrawler.com, and MetaCrawler.com as well as the online directory sites InfoSpace.com and Switchboard.com are owned by one company. InfoSpace also powers private-label search, along with online yellow and white pages, for a variety of Web sites. I removed my toolbar and found frazoo stays on. I just want to know who owns Frazoo?

Guest human_* Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 BlackSun, and Luke; Thankyou, I didn't know that. I knew that infospace bought out some time back "Nerdworld", and teoma "which if askjeeves let the search engine as it was? it could have beaten google". Askjeeves should have never messed with teoma, that WAS a kick ______ search engine. With teoma the search results were relevant, with supporting directories on the left hand side "sweet that search engine WAS". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
