I never liked MSN search

I've always had trouble finding what I want with MSN search. I'll use Google or Yahoo! Those are my favorites.

Well MSN's Hotmail inbox is a bit small, but Live mail is 2GB....and I've a feeling it'll be released fairly soon

I hope so as well. And about the search engine. It uses a more effective way of searching than Google, and is helpful in some cases, when Google turns up nonsensical results. I use Google for small searches, and many for more important ones.

If you are getting nonsensical results, you are probably using the wrong search parameters.

If I want to do a very specific search, I'll either use a few operators, or start from the Advanced Search page, which accomplishes much the same thing.

Not for Firefox users. Until Windows Live Mail supports other browsers, I'm staying away from Blinky Ad Land.
