Microsoft Corp. on Monday became the second tech-industry giant to offer software for searching through computer desktops - a technology it claims is vastly superior to that launched by Google two months ago," reports AP.
"The free software - included in the new MSN Toolbar Suite and compatible with the Windows XP and Windows 2000 operating systems - is designed to let computer users find the information they're looking for without scrolling through thousands of e-mails or file folders. Instead, they will be able to search for keywords located in virtually any type of file, from e-mails to instant messages to PDFs, just as easily as they conduct searches on the Internet."
