Simplicity is what I look for in a search tool. This has it, and it works great. I would love to see some kind of integration with windows explorer, though. Am I wrong in thiking this would make a kick-ass toolbar?

Exactly what I needed. It indexed hundreds of thousands of files on my harddrives in less than a second, and then I started typing in words *.* with no folder and it found all the files I wanted it too.

I replaced its list of text documents with "", and it immediately sifted through 70+gb of data in around 15 seconds to find the three files on my comp that contain a password.

Fast, Simple, and with ultra fast index building too. Only thing that would be better is if it had lots of command line options listed so I could gut Windows and replace its search with this.

Oh, and get rid of the semi-transparent logo at the top. It goes all funky when my mouse goes over it.

Updater in v0.4 will have a shortcut in start menu and will run automatically after finish setup.

I don't understand the second question.

About find files in all partitions, this feature was added in v0.4 (unreleased).

Works ok, needs a shortcut to the updater so newbies will know that it exist.

Needs to have real time search instead having to push the button.

Needs to be able to search all the hard drives at once. I have several partitions and you have to do it one by one.
