The list of search providers includes two entries for Live Search after you use an .adm file to configure Live Search as one of the search providers in Internet Explorer 7
After you use an administrative template file (.adm file) to configure Live Search as one of the search providers in Windows Internet Explorer 7, the list of search providers includes two entries for Live Search.
Note This problem occurs even after you delete the following registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\SearchScopes
This problem occurs because Internet Explorer sets the following registry entries every time that it is started:
Subkey: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\SearchScopes

| Entry | Type | Value |
|---|
| DefaultScope | String | {0633EE93-D776-472f-A0FF-E1416B8B2E3A} |
| Version | DWORD | 00000001 |
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\SearchScopes\{0633EE93-D776-472f-A0FF-E1416B8B2E3A}

| Entry | Type | Value |

| @ | String | Live Search |
| DisplayName | String | @ieframe.dll,-12512 |
| URL | String | http://search.live.com/results.aspx?q={searchTerms}&src={referrer:source?} |
To resolve this problem, do not use an ADM template to configure Live Search. By default, Internet Explorer 7 includes an entry for Live Search in the list of search providers.
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section.

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
