Some search engines:-
http://uk.altavista.com/ http://www.hotbot.co.uk/ http://www.lycos.co.uk/ http://uk.yahoo.com/ http://uk.ask.com/ http://www.mirago.co.uk/ http://www.ukplus.co.uk/ http://www.webcrawler.com/
These are general search engines, there are specialist search engines as
well.
Regards Mike.
