Here’s a quick little tip to add a search provider for Yammer in IE. It makes searching for a thread in Yammer SUPER fast.
Browse to Yammer and do a Search
Just do a search for “TEST”. You can optionally search in a group if you want.
Copy the URL
for example:

Browse to IEInternals Blog
Configure a custom search provider – http://www.enhanceie.com/ie/searchbuilder.asp
Make sure it says &search=TEST in the URL. Give the search provider a name and click Install
Make a search
Just type a search term in the address bar, then click the Yammer icon Twice
In my example, I configured it to search within a group
