A Message to Firefox and IE 7 Users of hakia.com

August 3rd, 2007 by Kartal Guner, Chief Architect

  You can add the hakia search plug-in for short-cut access to the search engine. All you have to do is browse to the hakia website and follow the instructions below.

Firefox:

Firefox

Click on the button to the left of the search box. If you are currently using Google the button will show the Google “G”- as shown in the picture.  After clicking towards the bottom you should see a – “Add hakia Search” – item.  Click on it and you will be done!

IE 7:

IE

Click on the drowdown button to the right of the search box. Expand the “Add Search Providers” Item and click on “hakia Search”.  After clicking you will be given a verification dialog box with the option to make it your default search.  Accept and you will be done!

We had this feature in place for a long time but still get emails from users asking for the plug-in. 

After the announcement of the hakia ScoopBar, we have also received a flood of emails inquiring about the Firefox version. We will launch it by October. Please check this space for updates!
