(And, yes, it supports Firefox too!)
Today, we’re proud to announce the launch of the Live Search Box, to bring the power of search to your Web site or blog through a cool widget. Check it out:
When the user enters a query, the search box dynamically builds a floating <DIV> on your page to display the search results. You can customize the query in the first tab to search your site, your macro or anything else, while the second tab will return general web search results. The floating <DIV> will position itself appropriately, whether you decide to place the box on the left, right, top, or bottom of your Web site.
The search box also comes in a pure-HTML flavor:
The HTML version is a simple <Form> element that you can paste into your site and which will redirect search results back to the http://www.live.com/ page. You can customize this search box to search either a specific Web site or the entire Web. Sound like fun? Check it out on search.live.com/siteowner, and let us know what you think. And keep your eyes open for a few posts on hacking the search box in the next couple of days. Note this feature is currently only officially supported for the US market.
Happy Halloween,-- Nathan Buggia, Live Search Marketing

Until there is someway for me to get a cut of the PPC running on the result's I have to stick with other solutions that allow me this.
So, I added the nifty new Windows Live site search bar to the top of the page there. Very Ajax-y site-in-site search. Learned about it via the Live Search Blog....
Same here - I'll put your search box on my site if i get a cut. Hell, you guys are behind, you should pay a spiff just for install!

Nathan and Andy,
Good reactive move there. But you'll need to get more marketing muscle behind the program as well as add more features.
Make the search box narrower and taller so you can drop in a small tabbed panel below it. Later, you can use the area for advertising but for now fill it up with compelling features like site-specific popular search list (top 5 for the week) so site visitors can see what others at the site are searching for.
Never liked movable type's build-in search. Now there's a nice replacement - Windows Live Search team offers us to Add Search to Your Site with the Live Search Box (via Dare Obasanjo) It took me about 5 minutes to change...
Thank you again MSN for bringing services that matter to the table. You have made excellent strides in usability over the past year with AdCenter and Now Live Search Box.
Thanks
This seems like a great widget - lightweight and powerful. Very nice!
