Search engine in OutlookWhen I click on Web Search in Outlook, it used to take me to Google, now
however, it takes me to Yahoo.com. I DON'T WANT YAHOO! I want Google. Please advise, and thank you. Where are you clicking this Web Search in Outlook? What version of Outlook?

IE, and went to searches and click on Google. Then I went back to Outlook and click on the seach icon, and Yahoo came up again. Google is default in IE, and Outlok uses IE settings--this is confusing.
