  Duration of ownership: 0 Days

  Strengths: Product is strong, searches are accurate.

  Weaknesses: Should be freeware instead of shareware.

  Overall Evaluation: This program is useless compared to Windows Search. Simply go into Indexing Options in the Control Panel, Click Advanced, Go to File Types, and then click Index Properties and File Contents. Then click ok. The index will take a few hours to update. Then, whenever you want to search in content, simply open up a search window and search for whatever, and your computer should find it (however, the start menu search bar still can't do file content searches)

  Strengths: Never found out

  Weaknesses: Doesn't work

  Overall Evaluation: I installed this pile of garbage 3 hours ago, I changed the location of index files (it's allowed), exited, started again, it froze my computer, and I couldn't kill the process. How could you have an indexer that does not have "start indexing" and "stop indexing" buttons. It is one of the most poorly written programs I've seen in a long time.

  Strengths: nice interface, handles most files well

  Weaknesses: slow; does not handle multiple (Outlook) pst files correctly

  Overall Evaluation: nice program unless you have multiple Outlook pst files. For me that is a show stopper.
