    I think Mr Josh "Virus Scanner" Cell might have a mental breakdown. Give him some space it will be done when it's done!

    An new search engine is planned for the next version.. Will be based on the Windows Indexer.

    Yes, it's a problem on the GUI Refresh when the scan engine is running, but not a major problem.. I'll try to fix on the next update.

    I like the simplicity of the program, but still giving me enough search options. Have you tried "Search Everything", it's what I use right now simply because it's lightning fast. I'm not sure if it's using the Windows Indexer or not, but it's defiantly not going about it the "traditional" way.

    Would it be a bad idea to search using the master file table in NTFS?. I mean, it would help you to live up to the name-"Instant" File searcher. Because performance wise your file searcher is no better than windows search. However, i hope that the app based on windows file indexing would do better.:biggrin:
    @dgate, i believe the tool you mentioned uses the MFT which is evident from the fact that it supports only NTFS filesystems.
