If Google search didn't exist how could we use the web?
Google is driving me to the random web or is just my opinion? Is there any
better search page? Or is this all I can get with this ISP? Feel like I was being redirected to the dark side.

Feel like I was being redirected to the dark side. "Stormin' Norman" escreveu na mensagem ... Your question is rather confusing. You can use whatever search engine you wish to use. Your default search engine is determined by both your browser settings and your DNS settings. When you enter a incorrect URL, many ISP DNS servers will redirect you to a search engine of their choosing. You should always establish DNS servers of your choice in your router or computer settings (unless you are connected to a domain). I am fond of this open source software for identifying the best DNS servers for a given location. https://code.google.com/p/namebench/ With all that said, if you don't like Google, try DuckDuckGo.com My settings are "Obtain DNS server automatically". I don't know if I should change this setting.

No hits on wiki, yahoo or bing. wiki, yahoo & bing insisted that I was not spelling correctly & insisted that I was looking for "hydrocodizone" or "hydrocodizine". It took about 2 1/2 to 3 months before yahoo & bing caught up....
