    Search Engine ?


    Hello,

    Is there a free, or inexpensive, search engine that will search the text in the documents in all my files, and not just by file name ?

    In other words, literally searching every text word on PC, wherever it might be, looking for a match.

    Thanks,
    Bob

    Free FileLocator Lite (aka Agent Ransack) can do that.
