Inquisitor 2.2

Inquisitor 2.2 has just been released, and it is now (you guessed it) a Universal application. But wait, there's more! No longer is it using Yahoo to return search results, now it has Google goodness baked right in. You want more? How about a refined interface? Yeah, I thought you'd like that.
For the uninitiated, Inquisitor is like Spotlight for the web (as long as you're using Safari). It allows for real time results to be displayed in Safari's search box, and it presents the results in an organized manner. All of this for €5? You betcha.

I agree with some of the previous statements:
DONATIONS ARE NOT DONATIONS IF THE USER DOES NOT HAVE A CHOICE WHETHER TO DONATE OR NOT.
In my opinion it is ridiculous that I can't download a demo or even a free version of this. I'm one of those open-sourcy type of guys.
The developer really should google the definition of DONATION.
I'll do it for him...he's too busy collecting euros:
-a VOLUNTARY gift (as of money or service or ideas) made to some worthwhile cause
done.
Jason,
Removing the acidsearch bundle (which i thought i had uninstalled previously) fixed it. I can navigate with key down now.
Thanks!
I have heard a great deal of bad things about the author of Inqusitor, who is also the author of Acquisition. Look through Acquisition's user comments on MacUpdate and VersionTracker. I don't think I'll be giving him any further money.

You can navigate down the search results using the down key. I've found that previous installations of acidsearch can cause problems. If you've used acidsearch before, uninstall both apps completely and then reinstall inquisitor.
The app is good and fast, but I misunderstood that it searches your history (which it doesn't) which prompted me to buy it. It does autocompete based on what you have searched for previously, but doesn't search the Safari cache of what page content you've read. That will hopefully be in 3.0. Otherwise it's a good app.
AMAZING. Great app, easily worth 5 euros.

And i hate not being able to use key down to navigate the search results.
Oh and btw, you can just go to paypal to pay the 5 euro and change the amount to 0.5 and complete it, you get 90% off and you still get the app. It is a donation after all.
I'm surprised they didn't drop the o, to make it Inquisitr. It's quite trendy.
