i have a bit of a problem with my start menu search when i try a search i get a error box saying "windows security" files can't be opened (as in pic) i dont have any results only greyed out "program" which when clicked i get the security box pop up.
i have troubleshooted the problem with windows indexing troubleshooter but no change i have not installed a program as of recent to cause this i'm running microsoft security essentials and can't find anything in it to suggest its stopping searches and i have the firewall set to default. any help will be much appreciated.

What are your current security settings inside the Internet Options control panel? It sounds to me like there's some setting in there that needs to be changed.

Absolutely! I'm still unsure about it, but I'll post in this thread if I try it.
Edit: I just tried to download Start Menu 7 from the Start Menu 7 site, but the download link instantly redirects to the latest installer for Start Menu X. So, I guess I'll be trying Start Menu X if I decided to go ahead with this.
Edit 2: Oh, this looks like it's mostly for people who have like hundreds of programs installed. I don't, but I dunno, it still looks interesting.
I've been trying Start Menu X for about an hour now and I think I like it. I might purchase the Pro version because it's only $9.99 right now whereas it's normally $19.99:

I went ahead and purchased the Pro version. I'm still using it and I still think I like it. It's a little bit buggy, but the bugs don't really affect the normal day-to-day operation. I mostly encountered these small, minor bugs while setting it up.
