I'm a software engineer, and it took me a good 10 minutes to find the damn setting. I haven't used IE in a few years but had to fire it up to so some UI testing.

Gosh this definitely screams monopoly abuse to me.

Speaking of monopoly abuse... google.com tells me to download Chrome to make the Internet faster.

I understand where your coming from, but IMO there is a world of difference between a call to action and making things worse to leverage your market dominance.

Can you honestly think of any reason for this screen not to just show other options that's good for users? http://static.arstechnica.com/ie8_search.png
