Windows Vista Search is Already Here in VistaGlance
Qwerty Studios has released VistaGlance, a free program for instant name-based and tag-based file search and access. VistaGlance adds into today’s Windows the search features which were announced to be added into Windows Vista at the end of this year and are already known as Spotlight in MacOS X Tiger. Now Windows users will gain instant access to files and programs by their names, attributes, and keywords without ever having to think about their location.
At the first start VistaGlance quickly indexes your hard drive(s). After your drives are indexed, you are ready to start searching for files. The search itself can be performed with Deskbar (a VistaGlance panel with a search input box in the taskbar), Explorer's toolbar (a VistaGlance panel with a search input box in Explorer's toolbar) or Floating Bar (it can be opened with a hot key). Just input your query and press Enter. You will receive the results immediately. With Deskbar you search in all indexed folders and drives while with Explorer's toolbar you search only in currently opened folder and its subfolders. After the search is completed the Results window appears. From this window you can run found programs, open documents, and perform a lot of other operations as well.
