I want to keep the 100 results per page showing, and none of google's moderate results bullshit.

I have deleted all cookies, history, cache, everything. Reset IE7 to default, and still getting this shiz. Each time I start IE it goes back to 10 results per page and moderate search results.

Can't find a fix on the web. Anyone know how to fixxor this?
