After recently reinstalling windows I now find that iegallery does not offer the create your own search provider any more - I get a 404 if you use the old link.

How can I add google.ie to IE9, only options searching iegallery are .com, .co.uk but no .ie

I had a brainwave to search the registry and found the entry for it. HKEY_CURRENT_USER>Software>Microsoft>Internet Explorer>Search Scopes and find the entry for the google search url.
