Change The Default Windows XP Search Engine

The default Windows XP search engine to search is neither blazingly fast nor does it provide many advanced options for locating files or folders. That's the main reason why many Windows users install third party search programs like Everything, Locate32 or even desktop search tools like Windows Search 4.0 or Google Desktop Search. Many search software programs on the other hand do not integrate well with the underlying operating system.
The search option in the Windows XP start menu for instance will still use the basic Windows search functionality instead of that of the newly installed search tool. Enter Reroute XP Search, a lightweight software program that offers the functionality to change the default Windows XP search tool to another tool of the user's choosing.
