  • So is there any catch to their desktop tool ?
    I assume they're not risking their "don't do any bad "-policy for this ?

    So what -is- the catch ?
    I am fedup with using the regurlar search in Windows, so I am defenitely in for some improvement.

    • I'm hoping that they updated the caching mechanism, as IIRC it didn't remove documents that you had moved or deleted. While this is handy sometimes for retrieving accidentally lost information, it does present a bit of a problem in that sometimes you really *want* that information gone.

      That was about it, IIRC. Maybe there will be a plug-in for it so that if it is still around, there will be an add-on to allow full updates.
