    I would say give Windows Search 4.0 a spin.

    Windows Search 4.0 has caused us numerous issues in our corporate environment (resource hogging, logging in issues etc) - however I have not tested it in a home environment.


    Copernic is one I have seen used: http://www.copernic.com/en/products/desktop-search/
