ActiveSearch is Rainmeter's first complex and flexible search skin. It offers the possibility to search on 30 different (if needed customizable) search engines and to use one launcher which can open any path on your PC and any URL in your standard internet explorer. Additionally you can define one standard search for easy and fast accessing your favorite search and four more engines for easily accessing with no more than two mouse clicks.

---Save the rainforest!---
Natively, Ecosia.org is ActiveSearch's standard search engine. What is Ecosia?
"Ecosia is a social business dedicated to environmental sustainability via the donation of revenue to the world’s most effective rainforest protection programs.
Our best-known service, the search engine mask at Ecosia.org, is powered by Bing and Yahoo. It lets an essential and routine task – searching the web – double as an ecological contribution: not only are Ecosia search emissions offset, but every click on a sponsored ad within Ecosia translates into either cents for the environment - or cents for generating more cents for the environment.
Cents may not sound like much, but they certainly add up. From its inception until December 2010, Ecosia was able to generate just under 125,000 Euros (164,000 USD) for its rainforest protection program with the WWF – and that in just the first year!"

---BETA---
If you would like to be a beta tester, please report your findings here .
Do you have any more ideas for search engines? There is place for 30 of them. By now, I only have 22.

---Change Log---
v. 1.0.4:
The new beta finally supports multiple search terms. You do not need to connect your terms with a "+" anymore. Also, the new beta has a button integrated which allows you to easily check for updates.
