Toolbar features
How does the Highlight feature work?
The highlight feature easily allows you to locate your search terms on the search
results page(s). Clicking the "Highlight" button will highlight all your search terms
in different colors (up to 5) on the search results page. If you elect to keep the
"Highlight" turned on, it will highlight those search terms on all web (HTML)
pages whether they are accessed through the Indiabar Toolbar, your web
browser, or other sources. The highlight feature is a toggle switch that may be
turned "on" or "off" simply by clicking on it.
If you would like to highlight other terms on the web page, type the word(s) you
would like highlighted in the search box (do not click the "Enter" key) and click
anywhere on the web page; the new term will automatically be highlighted.
Note:
In order to make web pages easier to scan for important keywords, the
following terms will not appear highlighted unless they are entered in the Toolbar
search box as single keyword queries or appear in a "phrase" that has been entered
into the Toolbar search box using quotes (""): a, and, as, at, I, an, in, is, of, or, the,
to.
How do I move my Toolbar?
To move your Toolbar, simply click on the separator bar to the left of the Ask
Jeeves logo and drag the Toolbar to the desired location.
Please note that on Internet Explorer 6.0 that the toolbars are locked by default. In
this case the separator icon will not appear, and the toolbars will be
immobile, until you right click on the toolbars and uncheck "Lock the Toolbars".
How do I use the popup blocker?
The 'Popup blocker' will automatically prevent any popups appearing on your computer
screen; by default it is in the 'on' (raised) position. To allow popups, click the button.
This will turn the Popup blocker to the off (indented) position.
You can see whether the popup blocker is on by noting that the button is depressed.
Additionally, when popups are blocked, the button counter will increase.
I have allowed popups to appear for a site
why are they still being blocked?
Not every popup on a site is necessarily owned by that site. If the 'allowed' site displays
popups from 3rd parties (ie. popups owned by someone else), those popups will continue to
be blocked when the popup blocker is 'on'. To ensure you see ALL popups on a given site
(whether they are owned by the site itself, OR by a 3rd party), turn the popup blocker 'off'.
Why have the features on my Toolbar changed suddenly?
Periodically, Indiabar will automatically upgrade the toolbar to include the latest new
search technology and features. Occasionally this may mean older or less-popular features
are removed to make way for the new features our users have asked for.
Installation
I've installed the Indiabar Toolbar, but I can't find it. Where is it?
If you do not see your Toolbar click the "View" button on your browser, select
"Toolbars" and click on the Indiabar Bar option.
If you are running an earlier version of IE 5.0 (without service packs), your Ask
Jeeves Toolbar may be listed in the "Toolbars" menu as "Radio" (if there are two
"Radio" options, please click on the second option).
After I have installed my Indiabar Toolbar, my other Toolbar has disappeared. How can I get it back?
You can view more than one Toolbar at a time and neither Toolbar will interfere
with the other. To activate your other Toolbar click the "View" button on your
browser, select "Toolbars" and click on the name of the Toolbar you are no longer
seeing.
Since installing the Indiabar Toolbar, my browser has begun to randomly crash. What's
happening?
If you are experiencing browser problems, please try upgrading to the latest IE
browser. The other possibility is that you have another 3rd party browser plug-in
that when combined with the Toolbar is causing your browser to randomly crash.
If you want to continue using the Toolbar, please uninstall the other browser plug-in.
How can I find out when a new version is available?
For your convenience, the Indiabar Toolbar is dynamically upgradeable. This
means that instead of you having to download a new version of the Indiabar
Toolbar whenever additional features or functionality are made available, these
features will be automatically added as non-active options to your Toolbar.
When I try to install the Indiabar Toolbar on WindowsNT or Windows2000, it fails. What's
happening?
If you're using WindowsNT or Windows2000, check that you have the
Administrative privileges required to install applications. If you are unsure of the
status of your system privileges, check with your system administrator.
I've tried several times to install the Indiabar Toolbar, but it still fails. What should I do?
Have you checked to see if your problem is addressed by any of the others listed
on this FAQ? If your installation problem is not addressed by this FAQ, please
send an email detailing the problem to support@indiabar.com.
Why do I get a Security Warning that asks me if I want to install and run the Indiabar
Toolbar?
The security settings on your computer are set so that you are prompted before
installing any program. The dialog box is asking you to confirm that you want to
install the Indiabar Toolbar; click "Yes."
Why do I get an ActiveX error message when I try to install the Indiabar Toolbar?
You probably have your Internet security settings on High. This setting will
prevent ActiveX controls from running. In order to install the Indiabar Toolbar,
you must have ActiveX controls enabled. In order to do this:
- Click the Tools menu on your browser
- Go to Internet Options and click on the Security Tab
- Click the Internet icon in the window
- If you see that your security setting is already Medium, skip to step 8 below
- If you see a sliding bar, move it to Medium
- If you see Custom setting information, click on the Default Level button and then move the slider to Medium
- Click OK
- Install the Indiabar Toolbar again
How do I uninstall the Indiabar Toolbar?
To uninstall your Toolbar, open the Toolbar Menu by clicking on the "Indiabar"
logo and select "Toolbar Uninstall."

Other
Does the Indiabar Toolbar track the web sites that I visit?
No. The Indiabar Toolbar does not track the web sites that you visit. The only information that we are concerned about
is the popularity of the Toolbar and of the different Toolbar features, e.g. how
many people use each of the Toolbar features. This information is sent back
to Indiabar and stored in the AGGREGATE for all Toolbar users together. We use this
information to determine how useful the Toolbar is to our users, in order to better
serve you.
How do I report a problem?
To report a problem with your Toolbar, please send an email detailing the problem to support@indiabar.com.
Be sure to include your Operating system (e.g., Windows2000) and browser version (e.g., Internet Explorer 5.00) to help us
better serve you.
