Occasionally a program appears which really does make life easier. Use it as a replacement for Windows "Find". It locates files containing "info", then let's you see the contents to ensure that you have found what you were looking for - Brilliant!

Download Page Everything Screenshot

Description:
A quick desktop search engine that enables you to find files and folders on your PC.
The program indexes your computer and is much faster than the standard Windows Search tool. Features include integrated HTTP and FTP servers that allow searching of your files from other computers on the network, an option to share files via download, support for regular expression searches and more. Everything only works with NTFS formatted drives




InfoRapid Search & Replace
System Req: Win XP - 7
Download Page InfoRapid Search & Replace Screenshot

Description:
As the title suggests. A very fast and useful tool for all pc users. It's fairly old but still does a great job.
Once I tried this gem, I never used Windows’ Find feature again. Like Find, It lets me search for text in nearly any file. But InfoRapid’s search combinations are vast, including Boolean operators (AND, NOT, OR and NEAR) and phonetic searches. I can actually view the files with built-in viewers for text, HTML, RTF and common image file formats such as BMP and JPEG. Search results are highlighted, and a double-click on any other word starts a new search (Review from PC WORLD 2000)
