I am trying to covert over to Outlook 2007, and I know there is a serch in there...but I can not find a Windows Desktop search. Is this the same as Windows Search? I also do not have a Nero on my computer (At least I do not think I do) other than a backup program I have used every night for years call Nero Backup. If I have these other programs, I am not sure where to find them. Thanks Art -- Thanks Very Much!

In the last couple of weeks, Outlook Express has a pop-up every couple of minutes that tells me I can save space if I compact the folders.

I am always asked to Compact
To avoid confusion, please begin a new thread about your specific problem.
State your IE version and full Windows version (e.g., WinXP SP3; Vista SP2) in your first post. Also tell us if Windows (Desktop) Search is installed. -- ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) MS MVP-IE, Mail, Security, Windows Client - since 2002 www.banthecheck.com Stephen wrote: Where to I find the Indexing Options in the Control Panel? snip
