Hi Folks

My "Search Files and Folders" window is coming up as what looks like an Internet search.

Any ideas how to reset it to proper format? (a screen shot would be far more informative but can't figure out how to include one on this forum).

Regards

Stuart

Stuart Mundye, couple of things for you to consider. First, as far as the search goes, do you have ZA? On mine it blocks things and asks for permission to access the net. Deny it and it will confine the search to the local machine. If you don't have ZA, you can get a free version (goodie,IMHO) @:

Next, the screenshot sounds like a good idea. What if you make one and then store it somewhere on the web (there'e free pix hosting sites) and simply post the addy here?
HTH.

Hi Ed, thanks for reply.

Yes I do have ZA, ZAP actually, but it can't help me here.

I like your idea of posting a screen shot to a free site (I take it from your suggestion that there is no way of attaching a picture on this site) but a Google search only reveals ones dedicated to particular interests and disciplines e.g. writers etc.)

Do you happen to know of a suitable one for what I need?


Regards

Stuart
