[Solved]CD25.0.2: yahoo is the default search engine, no matter of your settings

Comodo Dragon - CD Bug Reports - CD
#1

Hello,
My OS is Windows Vista Home Premium 32bit, I have installed CD in the default directory and besides CD I just have internet explorer. I have deleted every search engine, keeping only Google.

The bug I found is like this: even if I have Google as the default (and only) search engine, CD sometimes uses yahoo when you make a search.
This seems to happen only when CD starts for the first time of the day. If you select some text in a webpage, right-click on it and then click on “search TEXT by…”, CD uses yahoo, no matter of the default search engine you have set up.
I have attached 3 screenshots:

  1. my settings about search engines
  2. what happens when i make a search for the first time after starting CD (you can see the search engine is yahoo)
  3. what happens if you make a second search (the search engine is google, as it should be)
    Mod edit: Added solved to the title, Captainsticks.

Hi Jon79, thanks for posting this. :slight_smile:
Yes I have seen it with text search and yes I agree it is a bug.

I found it happens the first highlighted text search after browser restart, right clicking a second time brings up the selected search engine and then it is OK for the rest of the session.
