[QUOTE="Brown Study, post: 417740, member: 3889"] Using Spotlight probably wouldn't make any difference, but it's there, so you might as well use it. But Spotlight indexes the drive, so if it misses a file when indexing, it won't find it, even if it's sitting on the desktop. Grasping-at-straws-wise, download the free EasyFind. I've had better results with it than with Spotlight. And EasyFind doesn't index. [/QUOTE]
