Default Search Engines

Which search engines do you use? personally i prefer google, as i find it to be quite accurate for pulp sites. msn i find always wants to give you advertising, ask jeeves is a bit more obscure and yahoo search wants to give me yahoo sites. so which is your poison and why?

Google.com first, then playing with the extensions (.fr, .oc, .co.uk) to refine results, or Alltheweb, Altavista, Yahoo, etc...

I miss Infoseek...I loved how you could narrow down your search with it...
anyway, these days if I'm in a hurry I use Google, if not I use Blingo or Ezanga for the possible surprise win.

I have never really used anything but Google. Google is also the one I like to be listed in.
