Google?

Has Google been hijacked, or is it down?

Can you access it?

From my bookmarks I get taken to a Talk Talk page, when l click Google.

I can only get Google maps, and from there, when I click on Google Web, get taken back to a Talk Talk page.

Thanks.

Didn't work.

Takes me to a Talk Talk page.

(Which might be my internet provider. I signed up with Tiscalli.)

I can get Google maps, but from there nothing else.

Very weird.

Thanks for your help.

I'll just cross my fingers it goes right soon.

Re: Google?

If you type "www.google.co.uk" in your browser it should get you the google page.

next go to tools and internet options, it should show your home page and ask if you want to use current which will now be Google, Click current and down at the bottom click apply.
You should now get google up when you open a browser.
That's how I do it when all goes pear shaped.

All except me.

It's like losing a limb!

I need it.

I'm on Firefox, and Tiscalli, which might now be Talk Talk. l'm not sure.

How can I spell without Google's 'do you mean?
