Removing the built in search bar on IE7

The search bar in IE7 will become redundant if we install another toolbar for like the google toolbar. we could then use the extra space for our address bar. To disable the built in search bar in internet explorer 7 :

1. Start -> Run -> regedit -> OK
2. Navigate to
* HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
* Software
* Policies
* Microsoft
* Internet Explorer
* Infodelivery
* Restrictions
3. Right click on an empty space select: New -> DWORD value
4. Rename New Value #1 to NoSearchBox : Right click on New Value #1 -> Rename
5. Double click on NoSearchBox name
6. On the Value data textbox change it to 1 from zero
7. Click on OK

Your Search bar in IE7 will be gone, to enable it back again, just change the value data 1 back to 0.
