Copernic Desktop Search Software

desktop search

This is what PCWorld says about Copernic Desktop Search Software: "Windows' search engine is pathetic. Longhorn promises to fix this via "libraries"--which have many of the attributes of folders--among other improvements. Copernic Technologies' free Copernic Desktop Search doesn't offer all that, but the program does search the contents of your files--so fast that you'll miss it if you blink.

How does it do this? By indexing the files on your hard drive the way Web search engines index the Internet. And like a Web search engine, it allows you to do advanced searches using and-or-not strings; for instance, I can search for any files containing the words "Windows" and "Longhorn" plus the phrase "coming in 2006" but not the word "cow." Copernic Desktop Search even shows you the contents of the files that it finds."
