iGoogle home page

Does anyone know how to change the new iGoogle back to just normal, no frills, no maps, no news, no YouTube etc etc. just a PLAIN screen?

    I just set the home page as https://www.google.co.uk and that seems to work for me.;)

    If you just want a plain screen, then you don't want iGoogle. The whole point of iGoogle is to integrate widgets like the news, weather, youtube etc. If you just want the search box just use the plain google.co.uk.

    Thanks guys, why didn't I think of that !!! DOH! Worked a treat
  • Alternativey if you want to switc between the two, there is a cog in the top right hand corner of the igoogle page. Click on this and the drop down menu has a 'classic google' option.
    I seldom end up where I wanted to go, but almost always end up where I need to be
