My search companion is grayed out. I have re-installed, restored and
everything else in this forum but still not working. Comparing my computer
search companion files, registry etc to my son's computer (his search
companion is fine and working) our computer files etc are identical so there
should be no reason my wouldn't work too, right?

Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas on how to get my search companion
to display? It's driving me crazy.

Thanks in advance.
