Everythng...runs on Win 7 Ultimate.If it running in the background,
then it is super fast. I have 16 partitions and it searches them in a
flash.

Everything it is! (until something better comes along!)

You.

I support the Bear Bottoms Advocacy Club. Please donate either money
or cat food.

All proceeds go to freeing our Bear Bottoms from Baton Rouge
reputation from that other Bear Bottoms from Baton Rouge who ran
drugs, guns and killed babies.

Hey Bear,

That one looks pretty good.

I've been using "Simple Search and Replace" for finding strings within
files. It's great for finding text, and even greater for replacing
strings. Say you have a web page with several pages, and you want to
replace a word or phrase in all of them. It will whack the entire lot
in seconds. It's truly portable, with a check box to turn on or off a
shell extension, and lightning fast.
