Here's a link where you can select a few verbatim Google search plugins, different countries, SSL, etc

Or just add "Google Verbatim" to your search engine list:

Actual old-style search is still available. If you don't want to keep choosing the option after the normal results every search, you can use a search plugin. http://mycroftproject.com/sear...

You get new engines for Selection Search via the Mycroft Project, those can be used with Firefox's OpenSearch and Sherlock plugins, and probably with other browsers, too.

Yes, i use Firefox, and you are very helpful Sir!

Pretty obvious why Yahoo still exists, to pay more than Google for default search engine status on Firefox ;). Also they are one of the last major portals to offer a properly customisable 'my'portal interface, now that myAOL and myMSN are now dead and myGoogle never really existed. If there are any other major properly customisable 'my'portal web sites out there, provide some links.

One click search doesn't really work, mainly because for best search results specialised search engines are preferable, http://mycroftproject.com/sear... or http://mycroftproject.com/sear... or when you want you privacy back http://mycroftproject.com/sear.... As examples, so using the most appropriate search engine for the results you are after takes more than one click.
