If you mark some text in the browser and right-click it, there is an option in the context menu to "Search Google" for that selected phrase. Have you ever wondered, why isn't such an option present in many other every day apps?
A solution arrives with Web Search Quickey!
Now you can perform all your look-ups from nearly any application, all you need to do is to have some (preferably meaningful) text selected and press the hotkey.
The search results will be instantly presented in your default browser (in a new tab, if it happens to be already open).

Latest version allows to choose the search engine and define your preferred hotkey.

You may need to add exception to your anti-virus, firewall etc.

Please find more details in a readme file.
