Greg:

I usually use Yahoo, and/or Google, and sometimes Infoseek, in that order
of preference. The reason I like Yahoo is that the hits I get aren't
triplicated as they are with the other engines' caching and "find more
like this one' buttons. Of course, Yahoo has a larger nav bar to plow
through.

I'll be interested in what others do. What we need is a good proxy with a
Python or Perl script to knock off those nav-bar links for us. There's
isn't much I miss from Windows, but JFW claims to do this, and I have no
doubt it is the way to go and an achievable objective.
