Hi, I have a similar problem: In XP i could just type the search word, and it
came up with a list of files having that word in the title. But in Vista, I
type the word and before I'm done typing it is bringing up all kinds of junk
that has no relationship at all with the word I typed. PLEASE HELP! (This
added to multiple other outrages I am suffering from this worthless Vista OS
is ensuring that as soon as possible I will be stripping this trash off of my
computer and reinstalling good ol' XP... Microsoft should apologize by giving
us a free download to "upgrade" back to XP!)
