QUOTE(CuM2cmU @ Oct 20 2004, 05:50 AM) once you get used to desktop searching, it almost changes how you change the computer. at least it has on mine.
however, instead of using google, try Copernic Desktop Search. much much faster and better than google desktop. I agrre with you. I tried Copernic too. It seems better  The greatest advantage you can preview the files withour actually opening them! About Google, you may want to read this: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2004/10/15/go...esktop_privacy/Everyone has their view. Remember that the above viewpoint is from an archrival of Google in the desktop search field.

Are there no privacy concerns with copernic? is it only google? Copernic have not integrated their esktop search with their web searches, is a good indication... The link above reads scary though! medusa

I heard some people say it's scary how this search works. It finds files that your computers search couldn't find. Thats amazing and cool, does it pose any security risks?

hi, I have been using Google Desktop for quite some time now. Actually it has a huge index of over 1 GB on my PC and searching for files is extremely fast and efficient. Moreover u can set it to switch off indexing for certain folders (where u might have personal data) as well. There have always been privacy concerns for everything from Email to online shopping to whatever.. but that does not stop people from using it.. At least I find it more convenient and useful than harmful. Cheers.

Hi all, I have been using Google Desktop Search since version two came out. It is really nice...integrating maps, google talk, gmail, google news, and a todo list all in a clean sidebar. The whole integration is awesome, but then I can search for files on my computer, that is really nice! I agree with cse-icons...I find google desktop more convenient and useful than a concern for privacy. Go Google!!!

US Court Rules That Google Must Divulge All Youtube Users' Browsing Habits
yes, *every* user (12) As part of their battle with Google, a US court has ruled that Google must hand over the viewing
habits of every user of YouTube to Viacom. This will include the log-in ID of users, IP addresses
and video-clip details. Whilst the two companies involved are based in the USA, it is believed that
details of users from all over the world will be divulged. Considering that there are over 83
million videos on YouTube and about 500,000 users, I wish the person in charge of sifting through
this information "good luck". Whilst some would call this one of the greatest invasions ....
