Spybot Search And Destroy Safe?
Aug 20, 2009I was recently having some issues with my internet history and favorites about the wrong logos appearing beside the website that I posted about in another section. So I downloaded Spybot Search and Destroy to see if it was spyware but nothing was found then I did an immunilization and I checked the logos in the start menu and they went back to be the correct ones.
But what I would like to now is Spybot search and destryy safe? I've heard of fake ones that are actually spyware and virus. And where should I download it at? I was on their site but they give you a list of sites from where to download this progarm. Are all of those safe? I just would like to make sure so I don't download something that ruins my computer.
Search File Types In Vista Without Entering Part Of File Name?
Apr 14, 2008I can't find a way to search for file types in Vista without entering part of a file name. For example, if I want to search my C drive for all PDF files or all photos, the search function won't work without entering text from a file name (which doesn't work, because all files of a particular type don't necessarily share letters or characteristics in their names). Has anyone else experienced this problem, or am I missing something?

Jul 29, 2009When I perform a search in the Search Results window, showing any kind of icon view (instead of list, details, or tiles), the results show up without file names visible. This only happens when I run a search from the Search Results window (Windows Key + F), not when I run a search from a folder window.

Jun 9, 2009I have a file in my appdata folder that I'd like to check and see if duplicates exist in other (sub) folders. I copy the filename exactly and then paste it in the search box on the start button. Vista says there are no such files. Meanwhile I'm looking at at least one copy of the file in another window?
How can I search my entire harddrive for a file since the old XP search seems to have been removed?

View 4 Replies View RelatedFile Is Deleted, But Still Showing In 'Windows Search'
Mar 23, 2008I have an issue that I have just notied several files that I deleted over a month ago are still visible when doing searches on my computer. When trying to delete that I'm told that it is "no longer located in" the folder it was.
When looking in the original folder the files were in they are not visible.
They can only be seen when doing a search. Does anyone know how to completely get rid of them?
I believe this should happen automatically, but it does not appear to have worked as it was a long time ago that I originally deleted them.
Notorious Failing Search By File Contents
Jun 6, 2009WindowsXp was the best OS ever, after a few registry patches (e.g. notorious failing Search by file contents), a few tweaks, and in my case total COLORS customization, and in Classic mode, in the end it wasd the best.it took several days to customize, and one. With Vista, it's a dead end. Explorer forgets views.

Mar 23, 2008I performed a "search" for a portion of a name of an encryption program that we deleted from our computer because it didn't appear to be fully compatible with vista, even tho the creators said it was (they did admit tho that they didn't test it)...the "search" turned up 335 items, most of which were "image files". We cannot delete the thumbnails because it says the file or folder has been deleted. These items came up as search results in indexed locations. we tried to go to the location and delete that way with no luck.

Mar 23, 2008I am using Vista Business on my laptop, and I have downloaded the extension that lets me search my Lotus notes emails also. The problem is that this seems to lead to an ever-increasing mail file in Lotus. I am now at a 10 GB (!!) mail file, and it seems to be growing every time I use the desktop search. this not limited to Vista, btw, other people have the same problem under XP. Has anybody seen this before, and if so, is there a solution to this? Obviously, at some point I will run out of HD space...Sorry if this is the wrong forum. If so, where should I post this?

File Search By File Name
May 30, 2008Vista search seems to be trying to do far more than I want; as a result I often get no useful results. What I almost always want is a simple file name search, i.e., given a part or all of a file name (perhaps with simple wildcards), find all the files and folders whose names match that from a particular starting device or folder. This was really easy to do with XP and earlier versions of Windows; It seems so hard to do in Vista.

Jun 22, 2009except for a few grand issues like Search failing with special/technical searches rather than simple filename search, 85% of this OS is now great. I love it now. And can you guess how many processes show up in TaskManager? 26. ONLY TWENTY SIX. My IE8 starts up lightning fast and swings by all sites except videos, for certain sites w/FlashPlayer & Videos I enable CompatibilityView which aligns those older sites to IE8.
Applications startup as if they were already loaded into Memory, faster than in WinXP. Who knew? It feels like quad-core at 4GHz, seriously. Everything is momentary as if it were loaded from RAM This OS is still a failure, however, versus WinXP. Are you shocked to hear "failure" after my praises, do I contradict myself? No. Because most people are far from my tenacity and just by education, hobbies and profession I alway stune up things to perfection. My cheap car leaves far more expensive models wondering what rocket had just passed them on LIE Expressway. I enjoy tinkering with technology.
It took me 2 weeks (?) to tune up Vista beast to be a polished fast, bug-free beast. It's more convoluted than was tuning WindowsXP. I spent several days in Registry, GroupPolicies, SecPolicies, filesystem digging out and blatantly renaming & moving system files no one is supposed to touch.........

Jun 18, 2009I've got an apparently "broken" search installation. So that I can skip through the normal "click the folder you want to index" type of answers, it's way beyond that. Let me give some background first. This is a new installation of Vista x64 Ultimate on this machine. I just installed it a little over a week ago after I got a blue screen of death that wouldn't allow any type of system restore, etc on the prior install. My prior installation on that machine was a Vista Ultimate x32 bit. The prior installation had the OS on the C: drive and I had moved "My Documents" out of a Windows XP onto the D: drive (D:My DOcuments).
In that prior installation, I left all Music, Videos, documents etc. under the original layout and just pointed the Vista "music", "documents", etc folders to the sub folders. I had no problem indexing on my prior version. I have a Vista 64 bit Ultimate at work as well and IT has no problem indexing even under the default locations..........
