STARTPAGE.COM

Recommended by privacy experts, as it does not record your IP.
I never ever use Google, or any other search.

At least you are only sick and not ‘sick and tired’. If this is your biggest problem then you have it made.

I don’t care for Google or Bing, either. If Yahoo doesn’t have it, I’ll use Metacrawler.

Try the blind search test and see if you can figure out which is Google, Yahoo, or Microsoft: http://blindsearch.fejus.com/

I have been using LYCOS for 15+ years and am ALWAYS satisfied with the results. I like Yahoo for maps and driving directions, but other than that, I ALWAYS go to LYCOS. FWIW.

I use Copernic....it is not based in the US so you can get a more broad base of information. I don’t trust Google since I believe they are Progressives.

ixquick = startpage

ixquick.com

or

startpage.com

They are the same thing, same company. It used to be Ixquick, and they changed name to increase market share, to startpage. Now they keep both.

Yep, I agree. Dogpile. Used them many years ago, and came back to them as primary search engine when Altavista became a Yahoo preserve.

I rarely use Google.

I use ixquick almost always, but for photos sometimes I have to fall back on Google.

I've tried a lot of other search engines but unfortunately to find what I need I usually end up coming back to Google. Bing's just not there yet. Everything else is not even close. Too bad, because I really hate Google.
