Reviewed on October 11, 2004
Blinkx offers only a three-line summary of a file, not a preview. Wait for the next version of this desktop search tool.

X1 Search 04.08
Reviewed on October 11, 2004
This standalone desktop search tool, X1 Search, is blazingly fast but costs about $100 more than the nearest competitor. In our opinion, the free apps perform just as well.

Yahoo Search
Reviewed on May 11, 2005
After a few years of eating Google's dust, Yahoo offers new features that give the reigning search king a run for its money and make it a worthy alternative.
