Why would you be searching in "invisible folders." The "invisible folders" are well structured so if you know what you are doing you should know exactly where the file you need resides. If you don't know that, then you probably don't know enough to be mucking with those files. I don't get what Safari (a web browser) has to do with any of this. >Yes, EasyFind finds file names, but it's much slower than the others. >It's so slow that it's like browsing on dialup. Not always. If a file is indexed then programs with pre-built indices will of course be faster. If you have no index or an indexing problem then EasyFind is much faster. Many who dislike the user interface of Spotlight or Google, do like EasyFind. It all depends... ************************************************************************ * ==> QUICK LIST-COMMAND REFERENCE - Put the following commands in <== * ==> the body of an email & send 'em to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <== * Join the list: SUBSCRIBE COMPUTERGUYS-L Your Name * Too much mail?
