After getting a great idea off of newbie Nilef i decided to create this batch file. At the moment there is no support for google, because it wont work the same way as the others, suggestions welcome on how to bypass this porblem.

Basicly is opens an internet connection to a search engine u select and a parameter.

I will be adding it to Useful Tools:
