Let me introduce the smallest desktop search program available. Snowbird Xp is small, only 26K in size and fast at the same time. Just download and run it from whatever location you like. Snowbird does not index search results which has the advantage that you will always recieve up to date information. Some features have been updated in the new release, amongst them is the capability to search in word documents and excel spreadsheets.
The new Snowbird is highly customizable – you can edit the new catalog file and add new categories under which results are placed, specify what type of files appear under each category and you can minimize Snowbird to the system tray and continue with your work. Whenever you need to find something, just pop Snowbird up, type in your search, and let it search in the background as you continue your work.
