I did all this but the Windows Search window still automatically opens every time I try to open a file in my My Documents window. (The window does have a note that says: "Windows Search is not running. To start,...") I've seen other comments on how to REMOVE this program, but those options were relative to Windows Desktop Search. Is this the same as Windows Search? When I tried to remove Windows Search using the ADD/REMOVE program, it tells me that other programs on my computer may depend on this file and may not work properly if I remove it, so I am afraid to remove it. Do other programs really depend on Windows Search or can I safely remove it using this method? I use Windows XP Home. Thanks for your help! Also, please respond to my email address as well (woodall3118@msn.com) as I very rarely can find these forums once I leave them. Thanks again! Paul Dave!
