I really found to many glitches in the beta 8 IE. I get thie error , too. I have added more providers first. A Program on your computer has corrupted your default search setting for Internet Explorer. Internet Explorer has reset this setting to your original search provider. Internet Explorer will now open Search Settings, where you can change this setting or install more search providers. I noticed bing always has default and will not let me change it. I can disable bing or any other provider, but the error reimains if bing is enabled or not. It is always labeled default under status. I have the same problem and ithe OS 7 64 bit.
