Click Default web browser and choose an option from that list to be the macOS default browser. Once you've chosen a browser, close out of the window with the red 'x' in the upper left-hand corner of the window. Good Evening, I have Google Chrome set as my default browser in Lion. To access certain DOD websites I have to use Safari since it can access my PKI smartcard and chrome can't. I'd like to create a few desktop shortcuts for these websites to open in Safari, not chrome. I can drag the URL to the desktop and it creates the shortcut. I right clicked on the icon and changed the 'open with' to Safari but when I then double click the icon it still opens in the default browser, Chrome. Any mac geniuses out there who know of a script or something to force those specific desktop shortcuts to open in Safari(not default browser) vs Chrome (default browser)?

Google handles more than, or 3.5 billion per day, or more than 1 trillion searches every year. Your share of that may be small: if you're just an average person, you may search the web 3-5 times a day, but some of us, such as writers, may perform several dozen searches in a single day when researching articles and books. Searching the web is free. But nothing is really free. In exchange for providing you with such a powerful tool, Google collects data about you. It creates a unique profile of you, of your interests, your medical conditions (because _everyone_ searches Google when they have health questions), and your browsing activity, and uses this to provide carefully targeted ads. It also tracks the websites you visit, ensuring not to miss anything you do. This is why you often see ads related to your web searches. For example, you may have a question about your pet, and use Google to find the answer. You'll end up seeing ads for pet food on various web pages. Google is the biggest advertising provider on the web, and millions of websites use Google Ads. So by storing information about you on Google's servers, the company can know which ads are most likely to interest you. (Of course they don't know if that search about the cat was really for a friend or neighbor, in which case the ads are incorrectly targeted.) In other words, using a search engine is the same as giving away lots of private information about you, your habits, and your life. You may not want to do that. Search Engine Options You don't have to use Google: there are a few good alternatives, but most of them store information about you, to build the same kind of profile as Google does. (They just may not be used by such as aggressive an ad network as Google's.) You could use Microsoft's Bing, for example, or Yahoo!, or the privacy-focused DuckDuckGo. Or, in certain countries, you may want to use a search engine more adapted to your culture. (Wikipedia has, including those that are country-specific.) You may even want to use specific search engines for certain types of searches. If you're searching for a job, there are. For detailed medical information (for doctors and researchers), the search engine gives you access to specialized databases.
