Search using Bing within Windows Explorer on Windows 7
Search Connector can bring Bing search to your Windows Explorer on Windows 7.
Microsoft has got something right with Bing.com. It was an instant hit and to me it deserves it. You might get a better experience using Bing on a browser (IE8 in particular) but if you hate launching the browser to Bing It then you can use this plugin to bring Bing search to Windows Explorer on Windows 7.
Search Connector is a simple plugin that you can download and install.
Once installed and the next time when you open Windows Explorer on Windows 7 you should be able to see a Bing sidebar item on the left sidebar.
When you use the Search Box on the top right of Windows Explorer to search on Bing the results will show up as soon as you type your search query.
When you select a search result item it won’t immediately take you to the corresponding website but rather the appropriate toolbar items comes alive for you to take further action with your conscience. It makes clear sense to not take us to the website right way as this is being done within Windows Explorer.
Bing Search Connector is a no fuzz little utility that can certainly convince some people to use Bing on Windows Explorer.

How do I add Bing to Safari for Mac and Safari for Windows?
I like Bing, but I don't like IE and I hate Firefox.
