winxp search sucks
 
is there any alternative to winxp search

it uses up too much CPU cycles, crashes, cant find files which exist, has a fucking dog

another pain in the ass is that it searches zip and cab files... which slows shit down...

have to unregister the fucking dll's for both before a search.
and re-register them after.

if you wanna do that, and see if it speeds shit up for you...

in your Start>Run....

Before Search:
regsvr32 /u zipfldr.dll
regsvr32 /u cabview.dll

After Search:
regsvr32 cabview.dll
regsvr32 zipfldr.dll

I think you can use tweakui to get the classic seach

I gave up on XP a long time ago ;-)

The problem is Win XP itself.
