This has nothing to do with KM 1.6, but for what it's worth...

Google has changed in recent times and the only way to get certain options to stick is through the use of cookies, and since I don't set and keep cookies Google has been getting really annoying (and yet it's the best for technical searches). I've since discovered that by using the HTTPS version I can get what I want without cookies, specifically: a number of search results greater than 10!  Also, including "&nfpr=1" eliminates the incredibly stupid default auto correction that delivers the wrong results most of the time (wrongly assuming what was typed was mispelled).

The search string:

[b]https://encrypted.google.com/search?hl=en&nfpr=1&num=50&q=[/b]

Breakdown:

[b]https://encrypted.google.com/search?[/b]
uses the secure/encrypted search

[b]hl=en[/b]
sets the language

[b]&nfpr=1[/b]
"I know what I'm typing so don't change it!"

[b]&num=50[/b]
delivers 50 results, 100 is another option

[b]&q=[/b]
the query is:

other options abound I'm sure

example: [url=https://encrypted.google.com/search?hl=en&nfpr=1&num=50&q=K-Meleon]https://encrypted.google.com/search?hl=en&nfpr=1&num=50&q=K-Meleon[/url][/quote]
