Thanks for the link.  It lead me to figuring out how to fix it without
hacking the Registry.  Namely:

1) Click Start > Search > For Files or Folders...
2) Click the Indexing Service hyperlink in the left pane.
3) Click the Advanced button on the newly-displayed Indexing Service
Settings dialog.
4) Click Action > Properties on the newly-displayed Indexing Service window.
5) Mark the "Index files with unknown extensions" checkbox and click OK.

I mention this because the method listed via the link didn't exactly
apply to my setup.  The neat thing is you don't even have to have the
Indexing Service activated.

That method works, too, but at the cost of slowing down all searches. As I recall, it makes _every_ file searchable, including DLLs and EXEs that are normally skipped by the search process because Windows XP knows they are not user data file types. This might be desirable, but would be overkill if a specific file type or two is all you need to add to the searchable list.
