    Many times when I do a Google search, a small window comes up by the right top of the page which partly blocks the search result. On top of this window there is the phrase, "Best matches for...[topic of search] ". On the bottom is the phrase, "More Matches "

    Is there anything I can do to stop this window from appearing? I know I can press F11 which causes it to go away, but is there any way to stop it from appearing in the first place?

    Thanks for your help.

    Thanks Goddez, but this is not what I need... this seems to be information on forming a Google Group.

    Yes, this is now Resolved. I know there used to be a different way to indicate a matter has been resolved and I have been scrounging around to find it to no avail... I haven't posted a thread for a long time and can't recall how to mark it as resolved, can you please help with this as well.

    Ok, I will see if that large margin to the left comes up during this posting so I can click on the tools, etc, and resolve this thread... again, there is NO margin coming up to the left as illustrated in your post..
