Web Ferret
Even Richard Whitely would like this Ferret! A great search engine that's really easy to use, just type in the subject, name or whatever word or phrase you think might be useful in getting to a site of interest, and your little furry friend will go scurrying through whatever other engines you specify ( default is 9 major engines) e.g. Yahoo, Alta Vista, Excite etc. Give it a try, download it from Here It's FREE but please do not attempt to put it down your trousers!!
