Setting google as the default search engine for IE (internet explorer)

Apparently Microsoft has decided to rule the search engine world by confusion. Now when you try to select google as your search engine, you get this huge insane page called "Internet Explorer Gallery Add-ons" that suggest betty crocker and news 6 as your search engine, google is nowhere to be found, and when you do find it, it doesn't work. I say bypass that whole mess and use this link to add google as your default search engine.
