Yes... but they've got ya covered, buddy: "You can edit your history, for example, to hide an entry."

Hmmm - it's still google: "Web Search: Web search results are provided by Google."

Actually some of the toolbar options are kind of neat. I don't like the idea of having everywhere I search through go through a central database, though.

well it must in order to function as a search engine but there's no need for accounts to get involved so they can connect certain searches with certain ip's or cookied computers.

maybe I'll work on my google proxy today.
