I would very much appreciate support for Google Desktop search.

For now use the MSN Search Toolbar - and the DESKTOP OPTION - this is provided as a MyInfo Sample doc - sent w/ MyInfo v. 3x. as INTERNET.MIO.

I just used it and it searched for things on my harddrive.

Is Windows Desktop Search still the recommended program for MyInfo? Or will Google Desktop Search work?

I am not familiar with Google DS - so I cannot answer to that. But I would think if it's built on the same basis of MSN - there shouldn't be a problem. But that is unconfirmed on my part - anyone else try this G-DS?

Google Desktop and Windows Desktop integration was put on hold, because of the MyInfo internal indexing development, but now we can continue with it, so wait for an update.
