update Yahoo is set to push its Desktop Search program into general availability on Wednesday.
Yahoo Desktop Search includes a new feature called LiveWords, which allows people to highlight text within documents and click a button to search the Web for those words. The free program searches e-mails, attachments, Word documents, music files, images, video, Yahoo address book entries and Yahoo Messenger archives. Yahoo Desktop Search, released in beta in January, competes with similar products from Google and MSN.
