IE7 Instant Search Box Gone

Some how I've managed to loss my instant search box in the top right hand
corner of IE.

Can someone help me get it back? I don't want to download a toolbar program
I prefer to use the IE search box.

I've checked Internet Options to see if I can restore it, nothing there.
All they have is a "change search defaults" where you can only change search
providers.

Any help would be great.

I'm using XP Pro with SP2

Thanks

Re: IE7 Instant Search Box Gone

The "NoSearchBox" registry setting may have been enabled. Download and run
the following REG file:
