    Google Desktop is totally pimp! Way better than the built in windows search and it even indexs all you outlook emails!

    Hello,

    Well I guess I just now where most of my stuff is!!

    I put all my videos in one folder, photos in another, email stays online. I also have one dedicated to downloaded files like virus updates and program updates.

    now why wouldn't it let you search for image files as well? if you have images scattered in multiple directories, that would be better than turning on the Thumbnail view and trolling around looking for something....

    it will find image files based on descriptions / file names but it will not show you a thumbnail... that would be nice ...

    EDIT -- logged thumbnail as a suggesstion

    Finished its indexing today.... this program screams... I did some odd text searhes that were from emails sitting in my deleted email bin (13,000 emails) and it brought up the results in a blink of an eye... Outlook would still be chunking away...

    AWESOME little app.
