Why do I want another search box??? The address bar does everything I
need.is this the same thing that AskVG talked about for Bing? I have Google
as the default search engine and I don't see this new search box.

It's something Chrome and Firefox have had for a very long time and I guess Microsoft are replicating it, but I agree with you the address bar does everything and Firefox is still the only major browser to have a dedicated search box on the toolbar.

That said have you actually watched how most people use browsers?

- If they want to search they click on the address bar and type in google and then search
- Almost everyone I've seen still types in www before an address (on the rare occasions they manually type in an address)
- Quite a few still insist on having to type in http://
- Most don't Bookmark/Favourite a site and instead use Google as a bookmark machine
- I have to admit I do this for some sites...

While browsers have changed a lot most people's behaviour hasn't, and they don't notice, or take notice, of changes made to the UI.

I don't see the big deal over this though, so you have another search box? (which you can ignore or use) I don't see why you have to disable it.
